Michael Moorcock and Jerry Cornelius

Have you heard of Michael Moorcock? He imagined a character called Jerry Cornelius in the late 60s - a kind of maverick assassin responding (in sometimes surrealistic, sometimes almost analytical fiction) to the political and imaginative crises of the times. Interestingly this character became someone that lots of other writers took on (basically in the New worlds magazine) and he became for each author something the same yet something new. sometimes white, sometimes black, sometimes straight, sometimes gay, sometimes fat, sometimes thin. etc etc. (but always the fascination for cars :-)) These stories seem to have been written way beyond the 60s (dont know till when, maybe till fairly recently) and i am reading a compendium of some of them. Many of them are almost incomprehensible since they write in such a personal language (very very trippy!) but still quite fascinating to see the kind of dark and morbid fantasies of society that reflect quite directly on politics (unlike most speculative or science fiction that often relocates to new worlds or new time).
