This may just be coinsedence, but ever heard of someone called Soloman Kane? No, didn't think so, nither did I until i read this:

Click

'Blades of the Brotherhood' is one of the books he was in.

He is a fiction character (i think) in a book.

'Solomon Kane is a somber looking man who wanders the world with no apparent goal other than to vanquish evil in all its forms.'

Discuss.

He died in 1936... So unless Westwood was stumped on name ideas and were big pulp fiction fans, itsa justa coincidencea

I doubt it. WW probably got the names Solomon and Kane from the bible, rather than that guy.

Calling him 'Cain' would probably give it away too quickly. At least with 'Kane', you need to think a little first to make the connection.

They won't. They'll probably release their version of the story instead of the original developed by Westwood.
