The Whip was mooted as a possible GM project way back in '92 in a Comic World interview.
Grant Morrison in Anarchy For The Masses:
"The King Mob character was based on... DC had an old character called The Whip from the '40s. No one had ever touched it; I found it and thought that was great, I can do this real kind of S&M superhero. The Whip is basically King Mob. The original designs for that, I just had this character who was bald and based on the fetish stuff at the time, which again was established in the underground and magazines like Skin Two." |
