Consciousness, unprovable by scientific standards, is forever, then, the impossible phantom in the predictable biologic machine, and your every thought a genuine supernatural event. Your every thought is a ghost, dancing.
Alan Moore
Image
Yes, of course, the whole idea is utterly inane, but to let its predictable inanities blind you to its truly fabulous and breathtaking aspects is to do both oneself and the genre a disservice.
Alan Moore

American love — like coke in green glass bottles...they don't make it anymore.

If you give me a typewriter and I'm having a good day, I can write a scene that will astonish its readers. That will perhaps make them laugh, perhaps make them cry - that will have some emotional clout to it. It doesn't cost much to do that.

In comics the reader is in complete control of the experience. They can read it at their own pace, and if there's a piece of dialogue that seems to echo something a few pages back, they can flip back and check it out, whereas the audience for a film is being dragged through the experience at the speed of 24 frames per second.

They say we have we created the man to end all wars I say we have created a man to end all worlds.

Life isn't divided into genres
Alan Moore

Please don't worry. It's a psychological complaint, common amongst ex-librarians. You see, she thinks she's a coffee table edition.

I try to do things in comics that cannot be repeated by television, by movies, by interactive entertainment.
Alan Moore
Image
There's always been this feedback between comics and films. But I think that if you take that analogy too far, if you only see comic books in terms of films, then eventually the best we can end up with is films that don't move. It would make us a poor relation to the movie industry.

Technology is always a two-edged sword. It will bring in many benefits, but also many disasters.
Alan Moore
Image
I don't think any of us grew up into the world we were hoping for or expecting.
Alan Moore
Image
I felt, if I'm going to react I might as well over react.
Alan Moore
Image
I think that we need mythology. We need a bedrock of story and legend in order to live our lives coherently.

Your pretty empire took so long to build, now, with a snap of history's fingers, down it goes.
