That just sounds pointless.Surely the Victorian times was enough of a dislocation from the usual standards of superhero sagas, I can't see what making it Jacobean would add.

But surely that's just having the exact same idea as The League of Extrodinary Gentlemen but just changing the time period and cast slightly.I can't much see the point in copying Alan Moore's idea in such a fashion.

Because I wanted to rewrite the Anakin and Obi-wan partnership breakdown and eventual turn well, instead of terribly and inplausbily as in the film.For some reason I decided on the idea as a play, and I couldn't just have it exactly the same as the original star wars so I removed the future and made it one of the renaissance era wars in Italy to fit with the fact that it was a play better. That's pretty much it. I only ever wrote about one scene and then buggered off to do something more interesting, but the idea is still there.
