Gene K: In WildC.A.T.S., Moore revealed that the war between the two alien races stuck on earth had actually been over for hundreds of years, which completely tossed out the whole premise of the series.

****

Although I like some of Moore's work quite a bit, there's no getting around that he takes liberties wherever and whenever he pleases.

True story: I was assistant editor (late in the game) on Spawn/WildCATS. Spoiler warning, for those that haven't read a 10-year old story that's hard to find these days... in the conclusion of the mini, Future Spawn (who defeated Malebolgia and thereby got the magic to take over the world) was undone when he killed Future Zealot, who turned out to be his daughter Cyan.

Anyone spot the glitch?

Apparently I was the first (and only), after it had been circulating in our offices awhile. Everyone just assumed Alan had done his homework. I called him for a rewrite and then asked Tom Orzechowski to reletter the relevant balloons-- a fix that took all of half an hour but spared us some grief from alert fans.

Not a major problem, as these things go, but still.

Alan Moore is just one of those individuals that need to stay away from Hero comics

Something happened to England after I left. The people who had fought thru the Blitz, survied Dunkirk, produced Shakespeare, carved an empire upon which the sun never set --- morphed into a nation of nihilistic whiners. "Fascist England", a term that could be coined only by someone who had never personally experienced Fascism.

What the %#^# happened?

You lost your access to first-hand information?

Jesus, Americans worry about how they're perceived by the rest of the world. Still, mustn't whine.

Oh, you do not want to return there. You'll suffer a serious heartbreak. I used to check out the news in English TV channels, pretty much everyday, one day the whole thing became so bizarre, nauseating, just out right outrageous, i couldn't even stand to witness it.

The expatriates are augmenting, i believe, we have a good fair deal of them in the Algarve area here.

England, has now been thoroughly destroyed. Culturaly. Demographically. Even the Union Jack is considered "Racist" these days. The London mayor is straight up Marxist Communist. The major last sculpture put in there was a giant pebble. I really can not fathom more insane a diametrically opposed political switch than the one from the Tatcher years, and the current Tony Blair years.

I do wonder how an amazing woman like Tatcher survives witnessing her country being turn to shreds, piece by piece, by anarchic nihilists every single day... sweet lord.

What a load of bollocks. For God's sake, what are you people looking at? Do you want your counties assessed on the strength of their broadcast news output (remembering that, for the US, that's Fox News)? Either do a bit of research or carry on looking stupid. The choice is, it should be obvious, yours.

I thought the issue of Planetary in question was crass and silly in its representation of Britain. It wasn't as crass and silly as the above, though.
