Keller, James R. (2008). V for vendetta as cultural pastiche. Jefferson: McFarland. ISBN 978-0-7864-3467-1. The universal mode of observance through all part of England is the dressing up of a scarecrow figure in such cast-habiliments as can be procured (the head-piece, generally a paper-cap, painted and knotted with paper strips in imitation of ribbons), parading it in a chair through the streets, and at nightfall burning it with great solemnity in a huge bonfire ... [4] The future of the mask and how it will it be viewed by subsequent generations is unknown, according to Stirling-Middleton. “The essence of the story and the mask is that anything can happen and it’s people who make change and stand up to things,” she says. “It’s something that’s going to be generated by individuals.”

Years later, Skinn reportedly invited Moore to create a dark mystery strip with artist David Lloyd. [16] V for Vendetta was intended to recreate something similar to their popular Marvel UK Night Raven strip in a 1930s noir.

When the publishers cancelled Warrior in 1985 (with two completed issues unpublished due to the cancellation), several companies attempted to convince Moore and Lloyd to let them publish and complete the story. In 1988, DC Comics published a ten-issue series that reprinted the Warrior stories in colour, then continued the series to completion. The first new material appeared in issue No. 7, which included the unpublished episodes that would have appeared in Warrior No. 27 and No. 28. Tony Weare drew one chapter ("Vincent") and contributed additional art to two others ("Valerie" and "The Vacation"); Steve Whitaker and Siobhan Dodds worked as colourists on the entire series.
