Hey, did you know The First Men in the Moon was written by Jules Verne? It says so right on the cover of this Marvel Classics Comic-- it must be true! ;D (Bad editor; no -biscuit- no-prize!) .

Great!
I watched the movie loads of times as a kid, being aquainted with WOTW, it was a long time before I realised it was a Wells book too. Fantastic stuff...

There's nothing like pop culture confusion. I'll never forget a man I met in Woking (of all places) that believed Wells had written 1984.

Wells might have faked his own death!!!
He could be living anywhere.... he could be a memeber of this site!!!
Ok, he would be 141 years old, but its still possible. :-)

His is supplied by Mars Telecom, so it's decent enough. He doesn't tend to download much of that Martian porn anymore, so its not so much of a problem anyway

Nah, he's living on Mars - everyone knows that. He eats Mars Bars, Mars-ipan, and Mars-mallows. (The martians, however, drink the blood of the other race of martians, who plead for mars-y.) Yes, I'm bad. ;D
