“Not that I doubted a "comic book" could be one of the top 100 books of the last century, but I approached the work with mild skepticism. That quickly turned to awe at the overlapping narratives, commenting upon each other, the writer's eerie and prescient notions (especially with the current Russia/Georgia conflict), and the fact that this graphic novel was written in the 80s.
I'm pretty sure Alan Moore is Doctor Manhattan, and he's just been waiting in the future for us to catch up.”
