Wendy, that sweet Peter Pan character, meets Dorothy from The Wizard of Oz and Alice from Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland and all three have explicit erotic hijinx in a forthcoming graphic novel due out next month which representatives of England’s Great Ormond Hospital for Children, to which J.M. Barrie left the copyright of his classic novel, consider inappropriate. The graphic novel, The Lost Girls, has drawings by Melinda Gebbie and text by Alan Moore, who also created Watchmen, V for Vendetta and From Hell. According to the Vancouver Sun, a statement issued by the hospital declared: “In order to be published or distributed in these territories, Alan Moore’s title would need our permission or license. From press coverage, we understand it deals with sensitive subject matter which does not initially seem appropriate to be associated with the hospital and with J.M. Barrie’s legacy to us.”
