Named for the refined protagonist of Ealing Films' Kind Hearts And Coronets. Louis is an aggrieved and vengeful man who nevertheless has a way with a wry epigram. Oddly for an Edwardian gentleman, his interests largely comprise comely movie stars and vintage novelties. For Louis' classic horror album, try http://popgothic.tumblr.com/. For comics, there is http://thebaxterbuilding.tumblr.com/.
