Moore has written a lot of different stuff but Promethea is probably the most upfront about his views on magic, it's pretty much Western Occultism 101.

The murals around the shankill are actually the good ones. Have to keep up with the neighbours. In east Belfast quality takes a bit of a dive:

Pomplamoose posted:Will interviewing Alan Moore had a strong “Joe Rogan, but left” vibe. I didn’t know I needed that in my life. This but it was bad. The magic of chapo isn’t guests. It’s the chemistry between the hosts. Will isn’t a good interviewer and rolls over and lets the guests talk endlessly. No educated point refinement, no going back to previous points, no beginning middle end.

I was never going to be able to make the London shows but I feel like I missed out given that they've just put up a "Best of" show from the UK tour which is them just making GBS threads all over our lovely op-ed writers. And theres a loving lot of them. They could do an entire show on Nick Cohen and his increasingly insane anti-Corbyn hysteria. Or Toby Young's failson, miserable life filled with constant self owning. Or Dan Hodges being hired for his political insight and is wrong almost every time. Or Brendan O'Neill who is so desperate for a hot take he's gotten close to defending Jimmy Saville.

Halloween Jack posted:Neonomicon is a lame run-of-the-mill Lovecraft pastiche. Even the gross monster rape stuff is par for the course in that sub-subgenre. lol at his quote about doing it for the money quote:I had a tax bill coming up, and I needed some money quickly. So I happened to be talking to William [A. Christensen] from Avatar Press, and he suggested that he could provide some if I was up for doing a four-part series, so I did. So although I took it to pay off the tax bill, I’m always going to make sure I try and make it the best possible story I can.

I am sad/glad that it wasn't a full group session of the chapos and Moore. By Moore's own definition of magic, Felix is Chapo's by far mightiest wizard with his brain disease inducing bits and takes. Would love to see that wizard duel.

Would love to see that wizard duel. whenever they have a "serious" guest on they have to lock Felix in a closet until it's done. but yes, Felix's reality warping power is something to behold.

People argued endlessly over whether his awkward moment with Cross was them playing up uncomfortable tension for laughs or if it was serious or if it even mattered, Felix and Moore would end the podcast

did moore give up all royalties for watchmen or did he not get any to begin with? because i figured that'd be "never have to work again" money long ago.

So far this article has been good reading, but I haven't the answer yet. A tepid no to him receiving money, though it seems like he explicitly does not want their money. https://comicsalliance.com/alan-moore-watchmen-contract-gibbons/

It's complicated. He and Gibbons got a percentage and a fee, but their contract was set up so that once it went out of print, they'd get the rights back. DC broke with common practice by just keeping it in print forever. That's the source of the acrimony between him and DC. He refused to have any involvement with the film and directed them to send his share of the royalties to Gibbons. He's mad enough about it that DC using Gibbons as a go-between hurt his friendship with Gibbons for awhile. Part of it is a nasty incident where DC kind of strongarmed him into allowing a novelization--the writer was a friend of Moore's whose family member had a terminal illness.

papa horny michael posted:Alan Moore criticism is sus (unless it's pointed at sexual stuff in his work) Alan Moore's work is like a bunch of really nice architectural designs. They're really impressive from a craft standpoint, and you can appreciate the work that went into them, but they're cold and not very emotionally fulfilling a lot of the time Also they all have a room for doing rape

In that one, a young man learns more magick by having sex with an old woman.
