Alan Moore talks V for Vendetta and Doc Brown invents time travel. Happy Guy Fawkes. [I Heart Comics]

We don't really do Guy Fawkes here in the US, but in the UK and in many countries of the former British Empire, tonight is Guy Fawkes Night. It marks the downfall of the Gunpowder Plot of 5 November 1605, in which a number of Catholic conspirators, including Guy Fawkes, attempted to blow up the Houses of Parliament, in London, United Kingdom. Here's Alan Moore talking about his creation of V for Vendetta and how V came to be a modern Guy Fawkes.

If you're non-British and you're curious about Guy Fawkes Night as how is relates to history other than comic books, you can read more here at Wikipedia.

You may also be interested to know that November 5th is also the day when Marty McFly traveled back and forth through time. 1885, 1985, 2015... all on November 5th. Coincidence? Or some deeper meaning? You can read about the day Doc Brown invented time travel on November 5, 1955 here at Wired.
