I was just watching the second Resident Evil movie today, and the thought struck me, painfully, that Oasis and Alice are very similar!
Oasis is controlled, or was, by a satellite, very similarly to Alice. Oasis has a large number of clones awaiting awakening and decanting, just like Alice. Oasis is an superb gymanst, who utilizes edged weapons extensively. So does Alice. There is an "evil" corporation working on taking over the world. Same same. The list goes on!
I wonder, since IIRC the first Resident Evil movie came out in 1996, could Pete have gotten the idea for the entire basic Sluggy Freelance story series from it?
Comments, anyone?
