In 1986's super-hero comic "Watchmen" one of the characters, Nite Owl I, mentions an old super-villian named "Screaming Skull" who has reformed: "found Jesus, got married and had two kids".

It sounds as a metaphor for an organization which has radically changed due to external factors of social evolution. Could there be a connection there? Or is it just a major coincidence?
