I beg your forgiveness for posting this again, but it was a recent epiphany on my part.

New Order = The Fantastic Four

Barney = Johnny Storm ('specially when pumped full of drugs) Gillian = Susan Richards (Invisible Girl, married to Reed) Stephen = Reed Richards (stiff computer technogeek) Hooky = Benjamin Grimm (aka The Thing)

Anthony Wilson = Dr. Doom ('nuff said) Peter Saville = The Silver Surfer (spews pretty energy bubbles from his hands)

Doctor Doom!! haha

Tony Wilson deserves a thread in his own right judging by the quality factor of these comparisons!! ;)

Animal - I suppose so but he looks so much more like Sam the Eagle, and he always seems a bit unamused with everything...

So it's either him or Dr Bunsen Honeydew

oops...I knew Monster wasn't quite right...damn me...

but I think you may have actually hit the nail right on the head...looks much more like Steven than Animal...who actually might be perfect for Hooky...ahhh...I'm just drunk now I suppose...like that's anything new...
