I'm confused by your two cents. First I never really mention this was an "homage" - but even if it was - an "homage" how is the viewer supposed to even understand what the "homage" is if they've never seen or heard the original? The basis for many of these comics I have been making is that they set up an alternate history to iconic characters - and rely on the viewer to know some history before they watch. If you don't know it - it's not my fault.

To me... that's like criticizing Back To The Future 2 for not having either a beginning or an ending if you've never seen the first movie or the third - and being totally confused by what's going on.
