Y'all excited for this? It's been a while since I've

What's alan moore's take on this

>>95084319

Dunno, but he once called Johns a raccoon digging though his trash.

>>95084357
seems accurate

comics corporations need to die

He doesn't care, he knows it would be hypocritical for him to complain about Johns reusing characters and concepts. I doubt Moore really meant the "raccoon digging through garbage" comment at Johns.

>he knows it would be hypocritical for him to complain about Johns reusing characters and concepts.

No, I don't think the senile old fart does. He has regularly complained about others reusing his characters and concepts.

>>95084273
He was responsible for the expansion of green lantern lore as well as the Flash-point story. I think hes a pretty solid writer and I'm pretty excited.

The whole cape industry tries to copy Watchmen and TDKR for like three decades now, it's disgusting. It will never cross their minds it wasn't the grittiness or the characters that made them revolutionary.
But what Moores really about in his hate for the big two is writers being fucked in the ass and having absolutely no rights to their own creations.

Holy fuck that's accurate

>more uninspired Watchmen stuff from DC

Hard pass.

>that gif
What the fuck is wrong with Johns?

>>95085271
Tbf I bet it was DC corporate that commissioned this, although it is pretty disgusting

>>95084763
You mean those rights they contractually sign away? DC gave him a shit deal but he agreed to it and is still getting royalties to this day.

>>95085271
>m-muh sacred cow
Fuck off. The OP image is based as fuck.

>>95086656
this, it's epic, get over it nerd

>>95086531
Before TDKR/Watchmen there was no market for reprinted trades, Moore was supposed to get the rights when Watchmen got out of print which, if it wasn't such a huge hit, would happen right away.
As to the royalties, I heard Moore saying he started writing Providence because he couldn't pay his taxes.

Not even a total DC dickrider would defend that image, it's so terrible

What he meant was he wants them to use the industry's old ideas.

Moore is self critical of people going back to his well of ideas. He is despondent about this. He wrote Supreme to celebrate positive ideas as well.

>>95084273
The lesson we should get from Watchmen is that the way you tell a story is massively important. Such things like panneling work or having a thought-out beginning and an end.
An end to the story, not repeating the same shit every new generation of writers. Clumsily at that.

If he can't pay his taxes that's on him. He could have made fat bank on the watchmen movie but the crotchety old man refused. I'm not saying dc didn't fuck him, but his life is a product of his own damn choices.

it was full bait i hope. it's a clumsily drawn piece of shit and you're telling me that's an actual GIF for promotion?

dear fucking god it's going to be ruined.

He was always a stubborn brit. I think the point here is that the mainstream comic industry is a shitty place to do any kind of creative work.
