I recently read the recently reprinted Alan Moore’s Writing for Comics . It was really interesting to get a glimpse into how Moore thinks about creating. He wrote it about 15 years ago, and there’s a short afterword written recently, which concludes:
The basic message is “Ignore everything I said in the previous section of the book. I was young, confused, and nowhere near old or mad enough.” Just be advised that I’ll probably be writing a postscript to this essay around 2020 that will say just the same things about the advice I’m dishing out to you here. Beyond that, you’re on your own, pal.
