I'm all for that. For a start, the Igguldens' book sells like the clappers. Plus, I'd rather have Alan Moore blowing my mind than publishing porn (even smart, literate porn).

Promethea was great, but this is the book I've been waiting for him to write for years. Just can't wait! YES!!! Promethea was great, but this is the book I’ve been waiting for him to write for years.

Actually, probably not as directly serious as Promethea. I’d say it sounds like it’s a little of both, like Promethea. Actually, probably not as directly serious as Promethea.

He talks about how he wants illustrations like kids on 1950's chemistry sets learning magic, but he definitely belives in what he talks about. As far as it being "really weird stuff", hearing Alan talk about magic is not much weirder than listening to any religion. Sometimes it sounds more logical. I think it will be a little of both.

Alan is into some really weird stuff, so if it's the former, I won't be carrying it. If it's the latter, I look forward to it.
