Yes, this man is easily, in my opinion, the most brilliant writer in comics, and probably one of the best writers around, period. He looks, at first glance, to be a disheveled vagrant, he worships Glycon, recently retired from full-time writing to practice his magic, and he wrote the only graphic novel to be included in Time magazine's 100 Greatest Novels list. What's not to love?
Seriously, watch the video and revel in the brilliance that is Alan Moore. Anybody that wants to borrow my copy of Watchmen is more than welcome. *laugh*
