I love Alan Moore’s writing. This, like Watchmen and V for Vendetta, is another deeply interesting and complicated work which, as described by many, changed the comic medium. All the different components of a comic come together here to make an almost perfect work. The only thing I think is missing is more interesting lettering (maybe more like Sandman) but I think that this may have been before that type of lettering was acceptable—or at least marketable—in a mainstream title.
