Hook came out in 1991, and this comic came out in 1994. I wanted to say that Larson inspired the film, but it was the other way around.
Fun fact, the actor who played Rufio also voiced Prince Zuko in the Avatar the Last Air Bender cartoon series.
The actor playing Rufio also starred in a short film about Rufio's origin called Bangarang
Exactly what I wanted to find out. Thank you...
Disney released peter pan in 1953. The novel came out in 1904. When I think of peter pan I never think of that thing that was made in the 90's.
The idea of Peter returning to the real world and living a normal life and forgetting about his powers is the crux of the 1991 movie, and the punchline of this comic.
actually the comic he has the memories and is married to wendy. was he married to wendy in the hook movie or just married to someone?
He married Wendy's granddaughter, I think.
thats kinda effed up. like woody allen wierd.
Yeah its why it sucked even with Robin Williams. I liked Popeye more than that movie.
You may find yourself
Living in a shotgun shack
And you may find yourself
In another part of the world
And you may find yourself
Behind the wheel of a large automobile
And you may find yourself in a beautiful house
With a beautiful wife
And you may ask yourself
"Well... how did I get here?"

I'm sorry, Panda. I've been trying to like it for a long time but it's just not for me.
What about the Trump version of it?
That's the most depressing thing I've ever seen here.
I would watch this Matrix film
I mean, the movie "Hook" exists. You can literally go and watch it any time you like.
Hook is a great movie, just wish it had more Kung Fu
We have all been there.
It took me forever to find Peter in this cartoon!
So Larson just had the idea for Hook like 30 years later?
