In an interview with Games Radar, Alan Moore discussed the painful process of detaching himself from his legacy of groundbreaking comic book work.
Alan Moore is one of the most innovative comic book storytellers of all time, but his relationship with the medium, the industry, and his own iconic works is complicated. In a recent interview, Moore opened up about his decision to step away from comics, and his foray into prose with the short story collection Illuminations.
Saying that it, "felt like a bit of an amputation," Moore nevertheless firmly stood by his decision to "disown" much of his comic book work and its legacy. Moore Disavows All Adaptations And Appropriations Of His Work "I've disowned most of my comics work, including stuff like Watchmen, V For Vendetta," Alan Moore explained to Games Radar, "everything that I don't own." For decades, the author has been fiercely opposed to cinematic adaptations of his work, which has nevertheless not stopped Moore's stories from being translated to the silver screen – a process he believes is not just flawed, but ruinous.
