I honestly always assumed that someone else was a ghost writer for those books as a cover for Nolan. After all, I assumed he didn’t care / have time to write when he was out being a superhero.
I guess it’s possible that he actually wrote them, but I assumed that “Read my books” was a way for Mark to go to those specific books and find whatever is inside, written in the margins, etc.
I say that because the show puts a lot of emphasis on Debbie putting the books away and deliberately shows them being placed on the sidewalk to be thrown away. I get the feeling those specific books will be important.
Hmm, could be. But if that were the case I don’t think they’d have made sure to show us they were retro sci fi books. That makes me think its gonna be something in the writing itself, whether training the main character goes through, or a race that’s clearly an expy for the Vitrumites, whatever.
I’m confused about the books, I could have sworn they said he wrote travel books in season 1
Cecil said his travel guides “always sold well” when he talked to Debbie about the book, so it could be Nolan’s pulp sci fi was just relatively unpopular compared to those.
