frow what was Lexx bred?
It’s probably been brought up before, but my impression of the origin of the Lexx is rather simple. At the beginning of IWHS, His Shadow killed Kai and then picked up a piece of his bug-spaceship stating, “An insect. Curious…” (Or something like that.) I took this as foreshadowing. It seemed pretty clear to me that His Shadow took the pieces of Kai’s bug-ship, studied it’s biomechanical technology, and eventually built the Lexx. Keep in mind that when they made [i]Tales From A Parallel Universe[/i], it may have been just a “one-shot”, a movie with no real plans for a sequel. I think that after a couple of movies were made, they decided to tie in the insect civilization and His Shadow.
But I could be wrong, ya know. I haven’t read up on the subject in articles or interviews.
