Adaption B - Visual and Narrative Inspiration/Influence MEGA POST.

I have compiled a list of influences and resources for myself and others to use for referral to my idea's for this project, so I can refer back to examples of what I mean.

Thanks to Joseph Crouch for helping me with this research http://tromacorp.blogspot.co.uk/

All of these have either a direct relation to Lovecraft or encapture themes of Lovecraftian Horror. And some are more towards the Idea of a super team, like The Avengers, who come together to fight a greater threat.
