Recently got hold of Grant Morrisons' New Adventures Of Hitler' from Crisis...

(again...the first lot was nicked by new age travellers 10 years ago...')

One of the best things he's written i reckon on second reading...

And a very obvious apperirance by big red round shiney globe....just after hitler leaves the shitty toilet after looking for the Holy Grail...

Is this the first BARBELITH appearence in GM's work is what i want to know....

1990's...ish...

I know that there is a scene in Doom Patrol #54 that alludes to Barbelith. There is also scenes in Flex Mentallo where "Wally/Grant" is in the hospital and there are red and green stoplights. These Barbelith sitings appeared the comics after 1992.

Anal, anal, anal:

The word BARBELiTH appears on a signpost in a story Grant did for the A1 anthology called, I think, "The House of Heart's Desire", dunno when that came out exactly but it must have been like ages ago.

I think the word also comes out in the background (as graffiti) of an issue of Kid Eternity.

I don't remember "Barbelith" on the wall, but "King Mob" is graffiti on a toilet wall in the last issue of KE. Sean Phillips drew it in after he got the covers gig for the Invisibles.

I only got to read one issue of Crisis that had that story in it...Crisis was hard to get ahold of here in the states, and it wasn't exactly advertised.

I would love it if some company woudl take it upon itself to reprint the stories in that comic that I keep hearing about.

I'm still after the final part of 'Hitler in Crisis 49 - If anyone has a spare copy, or knows where one might find *ahem* scans, let me know....

Ha. Crisis 49 is the only part of the story that I've read, as well as own. I've got an old scanner lying about. Maybe I'll hook it up tommorrow and see what I can do.

Any chance you can scan the other parts?
