So what have I got to say about Alan Moore? Not much.
Never worked with him;
never met him; haven't even read an interview by him.
Let's face it, I'm the wrong person to be writing about him, really.

art-form I can think of, including comics.
I don't need to tell you about all the so-called "big-name" writers who put so much time and effort into promoting themselves, they actually forget to sit down and write some decent stories.
Worse than that, there's even gossip columns devoted to the activities of comics creators... that has got to be the most ridiculous idea I've ever heard.
I don't know if Alan Moore has his own website, and I couldn't give a toss if he did.
All I know is I've never heard of one, so I'm going to assume he spends all his valuable time on his craft: writing comics.
Funny ones like "D.R. and Quinch".
Ground-breaking ones like "Watchmen".
