I am still reading Swamp Thing (onto book 3!) and what strikes me about it is that it is overwhelmingly sad more than anything else. Although I suppose you could argue ST is not a typical superhero perhaps? He is almost like Captain Planet - but a million times cooler. Do you relate to Alan Moore, kb?
Swamp Thing is now on my to-read list. Should I begin with "Saga of the Swamp Thing" ? Or do I need to go further back?
What kb said. I think you might eventually decide to read the earlier stuff if you really like Swamp Thing (and Moore's is quality) but the earlier stuff sounds a bit dicier in terms of story quality and the continuity, of course, gets all fucked up.
He does claim to have met John Constantine.
Friends who are producing a new theatrical version of Robert Anton Wilson's 'Cosmic Trigger' just conducted an interview with Moore where he talks art, magick and his decision to become a magician. I get to edit. I'll link the results when they can be made public.
Ah yes, it's been long enough for them to have revived the play this year in London. Will add a link to the video shortly.
