...they wrestled with the scale of the book: "We had to make it clear, vivid, exciting and simple enough to play onstage." In the end, they had to lose several important characters and memorable scenes - including one of co-adapter Reade's favorites, where Saleem visits Tibibi, the oldest whore in the world.

But now, having inseminated the medium, porn comix seem spent. With dullness and utilitarianism, they whore themselves out to men who no longer find the Batman and Robin relationship satisfying.
