Heroes and Ray Bradbury

I was struck while watching the November 30, 2009 episode of the Heroes TV series by the similarities between Ray Bradbury's novel Something Wicked This Way Comes (1962) about Cooger & Dark's Pandemonium Shadow Show and his amazing collection of short stories based on tattoes covering the body of The Illustrated Man (1951). The Illustrated Man was also a 1969 Hollywood feature film starring Rod Steiger and Claire Bloom. In the movie, he is searching for the woman who tattoed his body. Sound familiar?
