Absolute Promethea, Book One by Alan Moore

5.0

A transformative vision! Alan Moore uncovered a nugget of literary history in the character Promethea and dreamed her bigger and fuller until birthing her into cosmic comic glory with the help of artists, inkers, colorists, and an editor. What marvel, their collaborative midwifery! There's intrigue, fun-if-flat characters, non-traditional comic action, and a stunning depth of cross-cultural magick. It's funny. It's flashy. It made me laugh and cry and think and write. "The best stories are the ones we can believe in," and there's so much of Promethea's story worth believing.
