Chapter names of books?

  • The names of the various issues have traditionally been chapter names of famous books.

The only issue I know of that corresponds to a book or chapter name is Through the Looking Glass. Along Came a Spider was a movie with Morgan Freeman, I think, but otherwise, I think it's just a reference to the old Little Miss Muffet nursery rhyme. I've never heard of any of the others in relation to books or chapters.

Am I missing something? If not, we should probably remove this note since it was just the one the referred to a book.

No worries, I just honestly didn't know. I thought they just made up cool-sounding names for each issue. --TonyV 16:37, 22 March 2006 (PST)
I sent a pm to Statesman asking for more info and this is his response.
