I love his work and his magazine Dodgem Logic is always worth reading.
He also seems to believe he is a wizard or something.
What a guy.

I'm not in an Alan Moore youtube spiral. I had no idea he was such an interesting social critic.

I went to see him do an on stage talk with Stewart Lee about his new book last week. Very good and his novel should be very interesting.
They talked for a little over an hour then opened it up to the theater for a Q+A; you could see him shudder slightly on the couple of occasions people in the audience wanted to go all comic fanboy.
"Alan, could you talk a little about such and such when writing The Killing Joke?"
"EEmmmmmm, no. I've disowned that"A great night though.

I'm such a nerd I queued up for a autograph! After 3-4 hours we had a great chat about his giant penis (he brought it up) and how all the prostitutes were complaining about him effecting business (the comic shop was outside Soho's red light district!) plus our mutual love for Magick.
Plus he gave me the best advice ever.
Guys a fucking legend - out of all the 'famous' people I have met he is the only one I was truly impressed with.

- it was so stupidly simple .... Just write every daymugwart
- basically be it. Dont worry about doing it and just do it.mugwart

- Ah yeah, and if you can - write before you've subjected yourself to the middling horrors of the outside world.detritus

I saw this thread bumped and thought he had died.
I have Jerusalem, not started it yet but I'm looking forward to it - always enjoy his work. I downloaded a torrent of complete Swamp Thing comics, his work there is fantastic - you should all check it out.
- did you rea neonomicon?GeorgesII
- that book is a dyslexics worst nightmare (after the alphabet) .... but really want to read it. Let me know how it is. Love Swamp thingmugwart
- ^ no, I haven't. I'll get round to it - I recently found a set of his aborted 'Big Numbers' series. Looks and reads great - very dense.face_melter
