OK Keith - your turn
And the spelling of Hel is intentional - it is the name that Rotwang (the mad scientist) calls Futura (the robot) after the name of the woman he loved that left him for Joh Freder

Awesome!
Haven't seen Metropolis yet, myself (blasphemer, I know)...I just never seem to be able to stumble across it. Not watching TV doesn't help.

Axioms Jack seems to live by (inadvertantly or not):
Why he does what he does: "I chose this life. I know what I'm doing. And on any given day, I could stop doing it. Today, however, isn't that day. And tomorrow won't be either." Bruce Wayne, Identity Crisis
On Rasalom: "Water's wet, the sky is blue...and good old Satan Claus, Jimmy...he's out there...and he's just gettin' stronger." Joe Hallenbeck, The Last Boyscout

But the book is better
Book! I didn't know there was a book.
Book it is.
[hmmm...wonder if my local library has that one...nope, on to Amazon and E-bay]

During an armed conflict, in an oasis of neutrality, a former mercenary and currently a nightclub owner is entrusted with a valuable "item" which will allow the bearer to travel freely. "Item" is highly sought by many, including an ex-lover and ex-lover's spouse.

I was away from the computer since Kieth posted, but that would be my guess as well.
Sharp eye, ImDeranged, and congrats, in advance.

The Book is by Thea Von Harbau (sp?) she also wrote the script and developed the story with Fritz Lang who was her husband
Best place to look for it would be http://www.addall.com I would guess there hasnt been that many editions in english.
