Planetary is a group of "Archaeologists of the Impossible" who hunt out the world's secret history. The group was created by Warren Ellis for Wildstorm.
I'm re-reading Planetary, and it's pretty clear from the end of issue 7 that Ellis intended for Jack Carter to become Spider Jerusalem. I'm surprised I haven't heard people comment on this before. Anyone else ever give this a second thought?
@Green Skin: This could be maybe he was not allowed by company laws but that highly unlikely it more like he probably is the counterpat to Jerusalem seen how Majestic is the counterpat to Superman
@Leliel: Probably more a direct reference since Warren Ellis wrote both characters. I'm not sure when Planetary was set, but I'm pretty sure the time-line's don't match up for him actually being Spider.
@Leliel: It's suppose to be a seperate Earth from his other creations from what I understand. It's supposed to be somewhere around 23rd century, but no one knows the calendar date so who knows. The bleed connects everything in the multiverse, so it's possible he could have used that to travel to the Transmet Earth.
