Can anyone who has read V for Vendetta tell me what it is actually about?

Have you read it and are confused about something, or are you just looking for a plot summary?

Here you go.

I'm a huge fan of the comic. I'm awaiting the movie with equal measures of eager glee and shivering dread. I can't wait to hear Hugo Weaving deliver these lines.

But as it happens I'm just finishing up the novelization of the movie and while it does capture a great deal of the comic, there are some changes that bother me. I don't know how close the movie is to the novelization so I don't want to spill anything, but...

When I finish this I'll read the comic again and see what I think.

Ooh that would be perfect research material for my technocratic London future story. The story wouldn't happen to be free online somewhere, would it?

Better yet, when's the movie coming out? Or has it already?

Posted by Lime (Member # 1707) on :

The movie's coming out on March 17th.

I really recommend reading the comic before the movie. The comic's brilliant. If you like it, he's done a lot of other stuff, too.
