Alan Moore: Storyteller

Alan Moore: Storyteller: “ Wp-Content Uploads Alan-Moore-Storyteller-1-Alan Moore Cover-Web1
Alan Moore: Storyteller is a lush new artbook about the writer and comic genius behind Watchmen, V for Vendetta, The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen, and From Hell. The hardcover monograph spans Moore’s entire career, from his early performance pieces and comic strips to his emergence as one of comicdom’s most brilliant and esoteric voices. Along the way, we gain insight into his process and can even see pages from his work-in-progress notebooks and scripts. The book includes an audio CD with Moore’s spoken word and audio performances. Gary Spencer Millidge, author of Comic Book Design, put the book together and Michael Moorcock wrote the foreward. A lovely objet d?art and tribute to this essential voice of 20th (and 21st) century narrative.

“In the tunnels of that twisted wood, whose low prodigious oaks twine groping boughs and shine dim with the phosphorescence of strange fungi, dwell the furtive and secretive zoogs;”

“Most of them live in burrows, but some inhabit the trunks of the great trees; and although they live mostly on fungi it is muttered that they have also a slight taste for meat, either physical or spiritual, for certainly many dreamers have entered that wood who have not come out.”

“It was the zoogs, for one sees their weird eyes long before one can discern their small, slippery brown outlines.“

Russian Pirate Party must change name, contemplates “Pira7e Party”

 

Russian Pirate Party must change name, contemplates “Pira7e Party”: “A Russian judge has ruled that the Russian Pirate Party has to rename itself, citing a law that prohibits naming a party after criminal acts. The party is now debating what new name it will use for ballots. Options include ‘Unnamed Party’ and ‘Pira7e Party’ and ‘Pirrate Party.’

I would like to conclude with stating that our principles, ideas and our website remain unchanged. I ask the public, journalists and all reasonable people to continue calling us ‘Pirate Party of Russia’

Judge: Pirate Party Name-Ban Decision Stands
