The Original Writer Formerly Known As Alan Moore

[Mr 9.8]

I didn't think MARVEL would actually agree to do this, but they are going ahead with leaving Moore's name out of the property.

I know Moore want's it this way, but I kinda find it sad.

I can't believe the companies are still kissing his booty.

Moore is a nutbag of the highest order. If he doesn't want his name on them, why begrudge a nutbag his personal lubricant.

I'm looking for a damn to give, but I'm having trouble finding one.

They're bringing it out as a monthly comic instead of a trade?

Let the milking begin.

What do you mean? There's only 1,275,902 variant covers for each issue...

Getting Moore to sign this book would be the perfect storm.

My friend on the other side of the world, how are you?

Upside down.

Moore sticking it to the Multinationals again

 

What does he think this will achieve?

Maybe he thinks floppy reprints with "only 1,275,902 variant covers for each issue" is lame (like everyone else) and wants no part of it. :shrug:

Alan Moore was created to balance the universe opposite of Bob Kane.

I've greatly enjoyed some of Moore's work, like Watchmen and Swampthing, but found others downright difficult to read, such as V for Vendetta and League of Extraordinary Gentlemen.

 

I don't think he's the genius some make him out to be, and I can only suspect that he's scrambled his brain with copious amounts of LSD. That said I don't know why he keeps wanting to take his name off of things he's associated with, but I can't say I really care.

[Shaven Kev-migration]

I think he has said something to the effect of "stop making money off my old ideas and do something new" as to why he doesn't want his name used on this kind of thing. I'm sure being into majik or whatever he thinks his name has power and wants to control how it is used. I know most of us would be like hell yeah reprint that dusty old story and slap my name in lights and send me a fat check, but some people have different ethics.

[Comicopolis]

Funny how so many people want to talk about Alan Moore - even the ones who don't like his work.

[chromium]

From Hell is probably the best thing comic-book related I've ever read.

Which is like the most ridculous thing ever, considering his career path.

Kind of like Rob Liefeld

[mackenzie999]

I suspect they stopped listening to him after the words

 

"stop making money...

were uttered.
