A community portal about Alan Moore with blogs, videos, and photos. According to Wikipedia.org: Alan Moore is an English writer most famous for his influential work in comics, including the acclaimed graphic novels Watchmen, V for Vendetta and From Hell. He has also written a novel, Voice of the Fire, and performs "workings" with the Moon and Serpent Grand Egyptian Theatre of Marvels, some of which have been released on CD.

Editorial Reviews
Amazon.com Review
Has any comic been as acclaimed as Alan Moore and Dave Gibbons’ Watchmen ? Possibly only Frank Miller’s The Dark Knight Returns , but Watchmen remains the critics’ favorite. Why? Because Moore is a better writer, and Watchmen a more complex and dark and literate creation than Miller’s fantastic, subversive take on the Batman myth. Moore, renowned for many other of the genre’s finest... Read Full Story
