Ah, yet another one of Moore's works where I love the story idea but just get SO angry with the man for his completely unnecessary and downright distasteful use of sexual violence as some kind of a panel filler?? Ugh. Knowing before going in that that's what you get with Moore makes it somewhat easier, but still, come on. That's just lazy writing, dude.
