Your “comics in the mainstream media” link for the day: Slate takes a tour through the career highlights of writer Alan Moore, the Orson Welles of comics.
(Ignore the links to the SUPREME books — here’s what you need for a proper Moore library:
- LEAGUE OF EXTRAORDINARY GENTLEMEN
- V FOR VENDETTA
- WATCHMEN
- FROM HELL
- PROMETHEA
- SUPERMAN: WHATEVER HAPPENED TO THE MAN OF TOMORROW
- SNAKES AND LADDERS
(and, if you can find cheap copies, of course: all three MIRACLEMAN books written by Moore…)
