ian / the crow

Hi i just read that on imdb that James O'Barr modeled the comic book Eric's Face on an amalgam of Ian Curtis and Peter Murphy. Iggy Pop served as the model for comic Eric's torso and more importantly, the comic Funboy's overall look and attitude. Iggy was slated to star as Funboy in the film however he was forced to decline the role due to touring/recording conflicts. To make up for his cancellation he agreed to be in the sequel.

Plenty of Joy Division references in said comic (and a few in the movie).

I need to read the comic.

Me too...I'm just afraid reading it will make me feel goth.
