Watchmen | Alan Moore

Let me start this review by quoting Harlan Ellison “anyone who misses this milestone event in the genre of the fantastic is a myopic dope.”

I’m glad that after reading Alan Moore’s “Watchmen” i am not a myopic dope anymore. For some they ask the question “Why comic books should grow this far?”

Batman: The Killing Joke | Alan Moore

 They say this comic book was the driving force behind Heath Ledger’s brutal portrayal of Joker in the movie “The Dark Knight”. It might be the case, because Joker, in this book was at his most brutal ever. Alan Moore left no inhibitions at how violent and mad Joker can be.
