For The Record…

In a seemingly continual campaign to rankle Alan Moore, DC have decided to forgo the inclusion of a promised vinyl record in the up-coming League Of Extraordinary Gentlemen: Black Dossier Absolute Edition. The rumour is that a featured song is a little too close to comfort in terms of copyright to another more famous song. Strangely, this has never affected Sony’s thinking when releasing second-rate Beatle knock-offs by Oasis.

How the Absolute Edition of Black Dossier will differ from the standard edition (given that the 3D glasses and Tijuana Bible were included) is not known. Maybe they will pull the stops out on the cardboard slipcase to justify the hike in price and prestige.
