There is a before and after in comic books due Alan Moore
PRICELESS TREASURE
I was lucky to find this book in its hardcover edition on one of the local comic book shops here in my country, Costa Rica. (Even luckier since that local comic book shop doesn't exist anymore)
I am a huge fan of Alan Moore's work. I already have The Extraordinary Works of Alan Moore, that it's really good with a lot of info about him and his history, however, it's a softcover version with black and white contents.

If there's more to know about Alan Moore than what's included in this huge tome, I don't think I want to know it. Granted, we don't learn creepy minutiae like what brand underpants he wears, or what he has for breakfast, but Millidge has painstakingly recreated Moore's career in chronological order. Millidge establishes himself once again as a solid writer of nonfiction in the way he did for fiction in Strangehaven, making what could have been a dry and dull book something that went by before I'..more
It's a coffee-table book. And a biography. It's a coffee-table biography. This is simultaneously a strength and a weakness. I mean, one might be tempted, as I was, to display it somewhere where it can be appreciated visually and to occasionally leaf through it, reading a small section here, a small section there, out of order, just consuming the 1-4 page sections that it's so carefully divided into before putting it down again for a while, or even just flipping through to admire the art, somethi..more

Really hoped I would love this book. As I love biographies and Alan Moore's work and mind as well.
Thing is, this isn't really a biography. It reads more like a summary on every work Alan Moore has ever done, with some art along the way. Thing is, to me this is like one of those animations art books where instead of insights on the production of the movies, and sketches and storyboards, you get stillframes.
If a wanted a goddamn stillframe, shouldn't I just watch the damn movie itself?

I've been reading this since November and finally finished! I'm a huge Alan Moore fan, but when I started reading it I got quite scared. The first chapter was SOO over the top its praise in the HUGE GENUIS of Mr. Moore that I felt a bit uncomfortable. Thankfully it turned out to be an intro written by Michael Moorcock and not the author of the rest of the book. The book covered a little bit of autobiography of Moore's early life but mostly it just focused on his writing which was very nice. It w..more

It is blatantly obvious that Millidge undertook this daunting task as a labor of love. To chronicle Moore's influences, his body of work, and multitudes of hurdles both professionally and personally as seamlessly as he did reflects his dedication to Moore's accomplishments beautifully. I now refer to this book as my Bible of All Things Alan. Each section delivers a concise yet thought-provoking insight to the collaborations that Moore has undertaken in his vast career, while also providing a col..more

Solid bio and overview of Moore and his work, though it's more a coffee-table book with high production values and interesting new graphics I'd not seen in other bios.
Thus, if you're looking for new material on or by Moore, this isn't really the book, but it's well worth looking at for the details.
If nothing else, it's got a more concise talk by Moore about his writing processes than in other interviews or bios. And being able to see copies of his typewritten scripts and/or notebook scribbling..more

Basically, if you are an Alan Moore fan then you need to read this book. If you have an interest in comics and how to elevate them above the children's pulp that they have always been in the US an UK then you need to read this. If you have no idea how good comics can be, and how much thought goes into them, then you need to read this book. One of the pre-eminent writers of his generation, Moore has revolutionised the comics and created some of the best fiction of the last thirty years.

A giant, beautiful, and very well done book on Moore's life and work. It works as an occasionally-browsed coffee table book, or as a reference for specific works.

Big Numbers is an unfinishedgraphic novel by writer Alan Moore and artist Bill Sienkiewicz. In 1990 Moore's short-lived imprint Mad Love published two of the planned twelve issues; the series was picked up by Kevin Eastman's Tundra Publishing, but the completed third issue did not print, and the remaining issues, whose artwork was to be handled by Sienkiewicz's assistant Al Columbia, were never finished.
The work marks a move, on Moore's part, away from genre fiction, in the wake of the success of Watchmen. Moore weaves mathematics into a narrative of socioeconomic changes wrought by an American corporation's building of a shopping mall in a small, traditional English town, and the effects of the economic policies of the Margaret Thatcher administration in the 1980s.

Publication history[edit]
The planned 500-page graphic novel was to be serialised one chapter at a time over twelve issues. The series was printed on high-quality paper in an unusual square format.[1]
The first two issues were produced by Alan Moore's self-publishing company Mad Love, with writing by Moore and artwork by Bill Sienkiewicz. However, the workload for the comic was intense, and Sienkiewicz stalled. By the time he backed out of the series, the third issue was still incomplete and rising overhead crippled the production.[2][3]Kevin Eastman, creator of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, stepped in and attempted to have his company Tundra Publishing publish Big Numbers.[4] Moore and Eastman asked Sienkiewicz' assistant, Al Columbia, to become the series' sole artist and Roxanne Starr to be its letterer. Columbia worked on the fourth issue but, for reasons which remain unclear,[2] destroyed his own artwork and abandoned the project as well.[4][5][6]Big Numbers #3 and #4 were never published, and the series remains unfinished.[4]
In 1999, ten pages of Sienkiewicz's art for Big Numbers #3 were published in the first (and only) issue of the magazine Submedia.[7] In 2009, a photocopy of the complete lettered art for Big Numbers #3 surfaced on eBay. The purchaser contacted Moore, and with his permission published scans of the art on LiveJournal.[8]
History[edit]
Alan Moore Storyteller Pdf Download
Moore announced the series as his popularity was at a peak. The success of Watchmen had made him a star writer.[1] Moore wanted to move away from genre fiction; Big Numbers was to have no genre, and deal with themes of shopping and mathematics.[1]
Mad Love ran into a number of difficulties: the proceeds from AARGH! were donated to defending homosexual rights; the production costs of Big Numbers were high; and Moore's polyamorous relationship with wife Phyllis and their lover Debbie Delano fell apart.[1]Kevin Eastman's Tundra Publishing agreed to publish the rest of the series.[citation needed]
Sienkiewicz's detailed artwork was time-consuming to produce.[1] He hired the 19-year-old Al Columbia as an assistant, but the pressures of the project combined with personal issues led him to quit Big Numbers after the second issue's publication. Jon J Muth and Dave McKean were among the names rumoured as replacements. Ultimately the job fell to the inexperienced Columbia. Tundra tried to promote Columbia by publishing his first stand-alone comic book, Dog Head, in 1992, and put out a Columbia-drawn poster for Big Numbers. The pressure turned out to be too much for the young artist, who is said to have destroyed the artwork for the fourth issue in 1992, and was not heard from again until the publication of The Biologic Show in 1994.[[[Wikipedia:Citing_sources

Plot[edit]
Set in the fictional English town of Hampton,[1] the book explores the socioeconomic changes brought about by globalisation on an insular community, represented by the building of a shopping mall by a large American corporation.[10] Meanwhile, the community also experiences pressure from prime minister Margaret Thatcher's economic policies, including cuts to health care and welfare.[11]
Style and analysis[edit]
Each page is laid out in a rigid twelve-panel grid. Radioinactive pyramidi rar file. The all-white speech balloons are circular, rather than the more common shape.[12]
Adaptations[edit]
In a 2001 interview Moore indicated that he did not believe Big Numbers could ever be completed as comics.[4] However, he spoke of the possibility of the comic being adapted as a television series by Picture Palace Productions, as he had the whole story mapped out on a sheet of A1 paper, and five episodes written.[4]
An account of the unravelling of the Big Numbers project is included in Eddie Campbell's 2001 graphic novel Alec: How to Be an Artist.[13]
Reception[edit]
The first issue sold 65,000 copies, the second 40,000.[1]
