(Trying to be as spoiler-free as possible.)

There's an obvious parallel between some of the plot points in Rising 
Stars 5 and one of last year's better genre pictures.  (If you don't know 
what I mean, I'll privately e-mail you a gradual (lots of whitespace)
set of spoilers.)

Since you don't do homage these days, and never by remixing another's 
plot, I know this was another parallel development scenario.  

I'm just curious if when (if) you noticed this you considered modifying 
the comic, and if it was too late to do so, or if you just shrugged and 
said 'it happens - let it ride'.

Hope you don't get hammered on about this at Gallifrey Sunday (I'll be 
there.)  (Hope Fiona hasn't run out of Bester scripts by then...)

No, I honestly don't know what you're referring to.  I'm guessing the Matrix? 
But I don't see any parallels there.
