Ha ha, It didnt really but when I was putting the concept scene together I realised that it looked like it! LOL

I was thinking of doing something influenced by Clive Barkers "Tortured Souls" (so your kinda right with the SPAWNed quote) but I couldent twist my mind enough to do it justice (if you've seen them you'll know what I mean!) and as I was cleaning up I picked up a harry potter book and thought of doing kind of a dumbledore/discworld type of wizard, then fell on the idea of death and the grim reaper which I thought I could put my own take on without treading on other peoples toes so to speak, as per what Mike said.

Well thats the background to the Idea LOL!
