Free Online Alan Moore Documentary, Issue
A few interesting bits of Alan Moore history have found their way online recently, and you won’t have to pay a dime for them.
AlterTube has posted "The Mindscape of Alan Moore," a 78-minute documentary about the creator of Watchmen and V For Vendetta that explores his growth as a storyteller and modern-day, magical… Well, you should probably just read the plot synopsis:
The film leads the audience through Moore’s world with the writer himself as guide, beginning with his childhood background, following the evolution of his career as he transformed the comics medium, through to his immersion in a magical worldview where science, spirituality and society are part of the same universe.
If you like what you see and want to purchase a copy, check out ShadowSnake Films.
DC/Vertigo has also made a full issue of Swamp Thing #21, the start of Moore’s critically-praised reinvention of the character, available online. It’s creepy as heck, but a great example of why Moore is one of comics’ living legends.
UPDATE: The video no longer seems to be available on AlterTube, but it’s now available on YouTube. Go figure. So here you go: Free Alan Moore Documentary on YouTube.
Alan Moore is the Greatest
Alan Moore is entirely overrated and has a bigger opinion of himself than he probably deserves. I know a lot of people out there would probably disagree with me on that point but I also know a whole lot of people that would.
Wow!I'm going to that documentary right now, this guy is bloody genious!
Heck! It's a deadlink. But I'm on torrent rught now…
