<p>The hospital — which was bequeathed the rights to the Peter Pan books by their author, J. M. Barrie — said that the creators of the comic book must obtain its permission before publication.<i> The Lost Girls</i>, which shows Wendy in erotic trysts and being observed by paedophiles, is the latest work by Alan Moore, the British graphic novelist behind <i>V for Vendetta</i>.

</p><p>The hospital’s right to control the use of Peter Pan and related characters in Britain and Europe runs out in 2008. </p></DIV></blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://www.timesonline.co.uk/article/0,,2-2238812,00.html"><SPAN class='byline'>By Jack Malvern </SPAN></blockquote></div><div style="margin: 0px 6px 6px 4px;"><table style="font-size: 11px;border-spacing: 0px;padding: 0px;" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%"><tr><td style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;">&nbsp;</td><td align="right" style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;width:107px" width="107"><a href="http://clipmarks.com/share/C77B44BB-8F9B-45CE-B1BF-A80BDB42A4AB/blog/" title="blog or email this clip"><img src="http://content7.clipmarks.com/images/c2b-foot.png" border="0" alt="blog it" width="107" height="17" style="border-width:0px;padding:0px;margin:0px;" /></a></td></tr></table></div></div>
