Thanks, Dave.  Interesting article, and anything by Michael Moorcock
is good, imho.

I didn't know about that Lord Horror comic, nor that British prison
called Strangeways.  The original publisher's website has details on
the obscenity prosecution here
http://www.savoy.abel.co.uk/HTML/nstat.html

it's interesting that the case didn't culminate in a resounding
rejection of the philosophy of censorship such as we've seen in the
USA, and in fact the law stands unaltered and ready to be abused
again...

that said, Lord Horror looks like kind of a nasty piece of work and
I'm not at all inclined to seek it out...
(having said that, it's probably destined that I will eventually anyway)
