1.0 out of 5 stars Not up to Moore's usual high standard, 17 Jul 2007
By Duncan Drury (London) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
A very disappointing book for those who want a complete Moore collection only.

The blurb says it all - this is an *adaptation* of some of Moore's performance pieces, rather than a Moore comic book, built on the foundation of Moore's notoriously detailed and well crafted scripts.

Ryp's illustrations are luscious, but ultimately convey no depth and no emotion. Unfortunately, the poetry about gangsters and flame thrower massacres in movie theatres doesn't really make for the best source material. It doesn't help that one can't distinguish the characters from the background in most frames.

Besides Moore's other work, this comes across as adolescent scribblings. I can only assume that someone somehow obtained rights to this my accident, got hold of a technically good artist and went for it, and found a publisher because of Moore's name. Without that name this would never have seen the light of day.

5.0 out of 5 stars Another Suburban Romance, 28 Jan 2004
By A Customer
Another superb graphic novel from the master of modern comics. Beautifully written, but the most wonderful thing about this comic is the quite exceptional artwork from Juan Jose Ryp. The second that i opened it, i thought i was going to die. Especially on the "'cause the subways are crawling with cannibal children" page, the detail is quite incredible.
The book is split up into three stories, Another Suburban Romance being my particular favourite, not least because it features a figure not dissimilar to Alan Moore himself.
This is the best graphic novel i read last year (2003). Do not hesitate to purchase.
