tru_m.a.c;3112093 said:it's also widely known as Guy Fawkes Day—a day that has some significance not just for our revolutionary-minded readers, but also for comic book fans in general thanks to Alan Moore's "V For Vendetta."
Guy Fawkes, a 17th century revolutionary, attempted to blow up England's Parliament building on November 5, 1605, in what is now commonly referred to as as the Gunpowder Plot. After getting caught, tortured and subsequently executed by British authorities, Fawkes' efforts and likeness became immortalized through parables, rhymes and other such stories—including comic books.
Moore's "V For Vendetta"—the graphic novel that inspired James McTeigue's 2005 film starring Hugo Weaving and Natalie Portman—focuses on a vigilante named V that's taken more than a few cues from the long-deceased Fawkes, including the constant use of a mask resembling Fawkes' face. Like Fawkes, V works to overthrow a government that he deems thoroughly corrupt, systematically targeting many of England's landmarks including the aforementioned Parliament.
"V For Vendetta" boasts no shortage of memorable dialogue, but the words that most readers seem to remember involve that fateful day of November 5th...
Remember, remember the fifth of November,
The gunpowder treason and plot,
I know of no reason
Why the gunpowder treason
Should ever be forgot.

Trial and execution:
"The jury found all of the defendants guilty, and the Lord Chief Justice Sir John Popham proclaimed them guilty of high treason.
The Attorney General Sir Edward Coke told the court that each of the condemned would be drawn backwards to his death, by a horse, his head near the ground. They were to be "put to death halfway between heaven and earth as unworthy of both". Their genitals would be cut off and burnt before their eyes, and their bowels and hearts removed.
They would then be decapitated, and the dismembered parts of their bodies displayed so that they might become "prey for the fowls of the air". Fawkes's and Tresham's testimony regarding the Spanish treason was read aloud, as well as confessions related specifically to the Gunpowder Plot.
The last piece of evidence offered was a conversation between Fawkes and Wintour, who had been kept in adjacent cells. The two men apparently thought they had been speaking in private, but their conversation was intercepted by a government spy."
