You probably know Alan Moore, the creator of “Watchmen” and “V for Vendetta.” What you might not be as familiar with are his contributions to the mainstream DC universe. Some, like John Constantine, permeated the collective pop culture consciousness. Others, like Mogo, remain relatively obscure.
Mogo is a member of the Green Lantern Corps and a living planet, introduced by Moore and future “Watchmen” collaborator David Gibbons in 1985’s “Green Lantern” volume 2 number 188. He wouldn’t be the first sentient planet to make it to the contemporary superhero big screen, but he would be the first sentient planet to make it to the contemporary superhero big screen as played by Stephen Tobolowsky.

And you know what? Maybe that would finally be enough to get Alan Moore to stop whining about superhero movies all the time. Maybe that would be the factor that convinced him to take a cab to the movie theater, where heartbreak somehow feels good, and soak in the wonder that comes with experiencing a more magical world. A world, in this case, quite literally made of Stephen Tobolowsky.
But they probably won’t do it. Studio executives. Not a spine between them.
