The character's name is inspired by the Situationist group King Mob, as well as Morrison himself (as a part of a sigil to improve his life.) He is also Gideon Stargrave, one of Morrison's early creations. Some elements of his personality, especially his Gideon persona, are inspired by J. G. Ballard's "The Day of Forever" and by Michael Moorcock's Jerry Cornelius.
