Malevs, Ectotheric Energy, and The Matrix

Actually, in reflection, it just occured to me that the Magnus run with the Malevs who put humans in little bubbles to draw off their "ectotheric energy" was kind of like the "copper top" human battery bit behind the Matrix.

I wonder if the W-ski Brothers were Magnus readers?

I don't know about Magnus, but they were readers of The Invisibles.

Which, I might add, is better than the pale imitation of the it that became the Matrix. I'm happy Morrison sued them.

Rather than inundate you with my biased ranting on the subject, let me point you towards a more rational comparison...
