What if one of the best ways to grow your business is simply to let people hear your voice? Alan Moore sits down with PodBox CEO and Modern Financial Advisor host Mike Langford to explore how podcasting helps advisors build trust, clarify their message, and create content that continues working long after it's published.

You know how sometimes people do that thing where they come at The Odyssey or whatever from an oblique angle? Like that Rosencrantz and Guildenstern shit? What I want to know is: what if we did that with Archie in Watchmen? That rugged and loyal companion abandoned like truth in the snow. What was his story, I wonder?

Ambientada en un universo alternativo en el que los vigilantes enmascarados son tratados como criminales, la serie 'Watchmen' utiliza el universo del cómic original creado por Alan Moore para crear un contenido completamente nuevo.

In this special episode of The Marvelists, hosts Peter Melnick and Eddie Wilson sit down with acclaimed comic book artist, writer, publisher, and educator Stephen R. Bissette for a wide-ranging conversation that bridges the worlds of mainstream comics, independent publishing, and creative rebellion. Best known for his groundbreaking work on DC's Saga of the Swamp Thing alongside Alan Moore and John Totleben, Bissette brought a revolutionary level of detail, horror, and ecological depth to the title in the 1980s. But his career extends far beyond the Bayou: from co-founding the influential horror anthology Taboo to self-publishing the ambitious Tyrant series—a meticulously researched, life-cycle epic starring a Tyrannosaurus rex that remains a high-water mark in creator-owned comics. Whether you're a Marvel fan curious about the wider industry, a Swamp Thing aficionado, or simply love stories about dinosaur comics and artistic integrity, this episode delivers insights from one of the medium's most thoughtful and uncompromising voices. Expect plenty of behind-the-pages stories, reflections on the evolution of the industry, and why dinosaurs (and swamp monsters) still rule.

This week on Myopia Movies, we put on the mask, stare into the abyss, and then complain about the lighting. We dust off a paywall episode this week as we watch Watchmen—the most philosophical superhero movie ever made, or at least the one most likely to assign you homework afterward. Join us as we unpack a world where superheroes are less “save the day” and more “deeply complicate geopolitics.” We wrestle with questions like: Is Rorschach a moral absolutist… or just the world's angriest inkblot? How does Dr. Manhattan make omnipotence feel like a midlife crisis? And is Ozymandias the smartest man alive—or just really good at PowerPoint presentations with catastrophic consequences? We dive into Zack Snyder's ultra-stylized adaptation of Alan Moore and Dave Gibbons' legendary graphic novel, debating whether it captures the spirit of the original—or just lovingly recreates it in slow motion. Also: we try to determine if any superhero team has ever had worse workplace chemistry, and whether the giant blue nudist is actually the least weird part of this movie. Want to pick a movie we do an episode on and record a special commentary just for you? Purchase something from our wish list!  We are riffers on Cineprov! Check us out!! How will Watchmen hold up? Directed by: Zack Snyder Starring: Malin Åkerman as Laurie Jupiter / Silk Spectre II Patrick Wilson as Dan Dreiberg / Nite Owl II Jackie Earle Haley as Rorschach Billy Crudup as Dr. Manhattan Matthew Goode as Adrian Veidt / Ozymandias Jeffrey Dean Morgan as Edward Blake / The Comedian Carla Gugino as Sally Jupiter / Silk Spectre

Alan Moore has just finished writing Book 3 of his Long London Quintet — and he sat down with Rosie to talk about it. In a wide-ranging conversation, the legendary writer of Watchmen, V for Vendetta, and From Hell takes us into "the other London": the hidden city of lost magicians, gangsters, and forgotten showmen that runs beneath the one everyone else sees. They get into why he declared himself a magician in 1993 and then had to live up to it, why prose is the most elegant art form ever invented, why he's done with comics (again), and what the riots of 1968 have to teach us right now. He closes with a message for these times: love and fight.

Alan talks about the work in progress that was V for Vendetta, his ET "rip-off" Skizz and other 2000AD work, whilst we interrogate Steve Moore about his Hammer Captain Kronos swashbuckling clergyman Father Shandor.

Let us know what you think of the showAhead of fresh episodes of Comic Cuts The Panel Show, here's a never-before-heard classic from the archive - Alan Moore and Steve Moore, interviewed at the Comic Con in London in 1982, by Kev F Sutherland and Steve Noble. Parts of this, as you can see in the episode image, were transcribed to become an article in the fanzine Fantasy Advertiser, and most of it remains lost because the recording quality is so irredeemably awful.What redemption has been done is thanks to Helen Quigley, Friend of the Podcast and superstar audio producer, who was able to rescue some listenable content from a cassette tape which has been in a drawer for over forty years, slowly decaying.Here Alan and Steve discuss their work on Warrior, which was newly launched at the time, and their planned forthcoming work which included Skizz, that appeared the following year, and a movie called Mirrorman, which we can only assume is still in development.Hear Steve Noble, my fellow interviewer, on the Bristol Cult Film Society Cult Film Podcast Podcast, and listen out for me, Kev F, returning with fresh episodes of Comic Cuts, right here very soon.kevfcomicartist.comJoin the Official Comic Cuts Facebook Page, aka Youtoobling, and comment on the show there too, why not?

We Watched the Watchmen (2009). The 200s most underdiscussed super hero movie, we are going to Deconstruct the Deconstructors in this weeks episode, looking at how the 1980s alternate history comic by Alan Moore was adapted for a late-2000s audience by Zach Snyder. Watchmen as a movie fits perfectly in the 2000s as a reaction to the suite of movies that had come out in the decade–as it itself is a criticism of myth, exceptionalism, and marketing. We are joined by Discourse Stu of Marvelous!

“HE WAS ALL OF US.“Hello everyone! We are back to talk about another film that may have aged a little better than we hoped, and we might all be worse off for that. We are talking about 2005's V For Vendetta, directed by James McTeague, starring Natalie Portman and Hugo Weaving, written by one of the podcast's favorite sibling duos, the Wachowski sisters! On this episode we talk about just how relevant the film feels, especially while living in America. In the world of V, we are living in a fascist, police state, ravaged by a viral outbreak, with state sponsored media spreading fear and propaganda, an authoritarian government seizing personal freedoms while the oligarch class is protected and reaping all the benefits of their crimes against humanity. An all too familiar world for anyone not living under a rock. Even though the original Alan Moore graphic novel was written in response to Margaret Thatcher's Britain in the 1980's, and the Wachowski's screenplay was written perhaps in response to the 2nd (or rather, 3rd) Bush Administration, perhaps the heart of the story is what it takes to survive these oppressive regimes.Speaking of Alan Moore, we talk about why the acclaimed graphic novel writer distanced himself from the film. When the frequent Wachowski collaborator and producer Alan Silver claimed Moore gave the film his blessing, which he did not, Moore asked for his name to be removed from the credits. Even still, Moore rejected the script itself and when we examine the differences between the film and source material we can see why. Both the graphic novel and film can be seen as separate, complimentary stories, but are so vastly difference that we can't really say it's a “good adaptation,” despite being fond of both. Listen to the full episode for more on this!We also talk about what the Wachowskis bring to the film. It wasn't directed by them, but by their assistant director from the Matrix Trilogy, James McTeague. Still, we can still feel their influence in what segments get special attention, the montages, and how we experience time and how everything is connected.Putting this film together, with who was involved, who was cast, when it was filmed, where it was filmed.. there are so many connections and references that we don't even get into all of it. Despite being a little sillier in some places, more digestible than something as heavy and poignant as Andor (which Austin HIGHLY recommends,) the film delivers some moments that may never be forgot.You can listen to this episode ANYWHERE you get your podcasts!

Tom Hush, Executive Producer at WLS-AM 890, joins Nick for another round of Tom's Theater of Trash. This time he celebrates The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen, the infamous 2003 box office flop based on the Alan Moore graphic novel and starring Sean Connery. Tom breaks down why he loves it, why it failed, why it maybe didn't deserve to, and how so many of Moore's other works have ended up as rough movie adaptations. Then, with May just getting started, Nick puts Esmeralda Leon through a themed quiz all about the month. They cover everything from May Day traditions and the official flowers of May to Amelia Earhart and more. It's gonna be May. [Ep 451]

fWotD Episode 3273: Sinestro Corps War Welcome to featured Wiki of the Day, your daily dose of knowledge from Wikipedia's finest articles.The featured article for Tuesday, 21 April 2026, is Sinestro Corps War."Sinestro Corps War" is an American comic book crossover event published by DC Comics in its Green Lantern and Green Lantern Corps titles. Written by Geoff Johns and Dave Gibbons and drawn by Ivan Reis, Patrick Gleason, and Ethan Van Sciver, the 11-part saga was originally published between June and December 2007. In addition to the main storyline, four supplemental "Tales of the Sinestro Corps" one-shot specials and a Blue Beetle tie-in issue were concurrently released.The story centers on the Green Lanterns of Earth—Hal Jordan, Kyle Rayner, John Stewart and Guy Gardner—and the rest of the Green Lantern Corps as they fight an interstellar war against the Sinestro Corps, an army led by the former Green Lantern Sinestro who are armed with yellow power rings and seek a universe ruled through fear. A 1986 Alan Moore "Tales of the Green Lantern Corps" story was the thematic basis of the storyline. Many characters were changed, killed off, or re-introduced as a result of the event.Critical and fan reception to "Sinestro Corps War" was highly positive. Many reviewers ranked it among the top comic books of the year, and the storyline's first issue garnered a 2008 Eisner Award nomination for Best Penciller/Inker or Penciller/Inker Team. The storyline was also a financial success, and several issues underwent multiple printings. "Sinestro Corps War" is the second part of a trilogy in the Green Lantern storyline, preceded by the 2005 miniseries Green Lantern: Rebirth. The conclusion of "Sinestro Corps War" sets up the third and final part of the trilogy, Blackest Night, which was published in 2009.This recording reflects the Wikipedia text as of 01:07 UTC on Tuesday, 21 April 2026.For the full current version of the article, see Sinestro Corps War on Wikipedia.This podcast uses content from Wikipedia under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike License.Visit our archives at wikioftheday.com and subscribe to stay updated on new episodes.Follow us on Bluesky at @wikioftheday.com.Also check out Curmudgeon's Corner, a current events podcast.Until next time, I'm neural Matthew.

Shauna and Olivia want to share their favorite movies with each other, and you! Up first is Shauna's favorite movie, V for Vendetta. Released in 2006, V for Vendetta was based on the DC/Vertigo comic series by Alan Moore and David Lloyd. Directed by James McTeigue and written by the Wachowskis, V for Vendetta stars Hugo Weaving as the masked V, Natalie Portman as Evey, and a veritable who's who of British actors (mostly male) including John Hurt, Rupert Graves, Stephen Fry and Stephen Rea. The Junkies discuss the plot (spoilers abound, so be sure you've seen it before listening), the characters, the romance, the themes, and the stunning parallels between a movie released 20 years ago and today's political landscape. We have affordable and rewarding Patreon tiers!

V de Venganza. Veinte años de revolución Un revolucionario anarquista se enfrenta a un estado fascista. Él, simplemente conocido como V, quiere liberar a Inglaterra del totalitarismo y la intolerancia, y con ella, levantar al mundo entero. Pero su camino estará lleno de dificultades muy difíciles de prever. El rodaje de V de Venganza, la película que cuenta esa historia, también estuvo lleno de penurias, desde un guion rechazado por Alan Moore –porque según él se separaba demasiado del cómic escrito por él y que fue la inspiración para la película–, hasta un rudo proceso de doblaje de los diálogos de nuestro anti héroe, encarnado por Hugo Weaving. Ligada a Matrix en más de un sentido, muy aplaudida en su estreno, revisada con devoción por hordas de fans, V de Venganza cumple 20 años y para celebrarlo es que hacemos este episodio del podcast Cinegarage. El invitado no podía ser otro que Cha, que además de integrante de Fobia y Gran Sur, es especialista y conocedor del mundo del cómic y fan de V de Venganza, una historia explosiva, como un Judas gordo de semana santa.

FLASHBACK! We continue our look at Alan Moore's 1980s run on Swamp Thing— a run in which the title character met werewolves and vampires (as Moore and co. found a new way to use these old tropes), as well as new character John Constantine. Moore was aided by artists Stephen Bissette, John Totleben, and Alfredo … Continue reading #617 Swamp Thing meets the monsters

Plans changed. Our guest couldn't make it, so we did what any reasonable podcasters would do: We threw open the doors to The Lobby for a full-length Hot Takes edition. Listeners brought the heat with questions about books that should've stayed books, movies that deserve a reboot, sequels that ruined the original, and whether Taylor Swift is overrated (Cody had thoughts). We talk Clive Cussler's missed movie franchise, why Dave won't watch animated shows, the Indiana Jones-sized hole in pop culture, and whether fans or studios do more damage to the things we love. Plus a rapid-fire agree-or-disagree bonus round that includes Baby Yoda slander, Ted Lasso discourse, and the question of whether Harrison Ford has been phoning it in since 1997. We close it out with a conversation about Batman, the legacy of Frank Miller and Alan Moore, and why dark and gritty isn't always the answer. Holy Hot Takes, Batman!https://linktr.ee/PopCulturePastorPod

Daniel Villalobos repasa la historia de “V de Vendetta” a dos décadas de su estreno. Desde el cómic original basado en la Inglaterra de Margaret Thatcher hasta el rechazo de su creador a las adaptaciones cinematográficas. El propio Alan Moore no quiso nada con la película de las hermanas Wachowski, que popularizó la máscara de Guy Fawkes convirtiéndola en un símbolo de protesta.

This week, Tom and Laura are getting into tulpas — the ancient Tibetan practice of conjuring a living being purely through the power of concentrated thought. They explore how the concept traveled from Buddhist monasteries to 4chan forums (via a very unexpected My Little Pony detour), and discuss the modern "tulpamancer" community that's been trying to will fictional characters into existence ever since. They also dig into the Philip Experiment, a 1972 Toronto study in which a group of regular people invented a fictional 17th-century ghost and then tried to hold a séance with him — with some genuinely strange results. Plus, the Global Consciousness Project's claim that random number generators went haywire before the first plane hit on 9/11, Philip K. Dick's season pass to Disneyland and his very unexpected lunch companion, Alan Moore spotting John Constantine in a sandwich shop, and a comics writer who may have accidentally manifested an armed robbery straight out of a scene he'd just finished writing. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

It's Alan Moore's favorite comic, Little Lulu! She's that wacky moppet who likes to cause trouble. What an adorable little bitch! We all love Little Lulu.

With the wrestling history books set aside for now, SeanGeek, FastFret, and Heath McCoy turn their attention to music. The conversation ranges from the live album chemistry of Rush and ZZ Top, to the underappreciated 1970s era of the Scorpions, to Beck's ever-shifting musical identity — with a few rounds of the show's "Pass or Go" game thrown in along the way. Heath also shares some of his work outside of wrestling, including his interviews with comic book legends Neil Adams, Stan Lee, and Alan Moore, teasing a possible future episode dedicated entirely to comics.https://shows.acast.com/school-of-hiphttps://www.amazon.ca/Pain-Passion-History-Stampede-Wrestling/dp/1550227874Linktree: https://linktr.ee/seangeekpodcastPatreon: https://www.patreon.com/c/seangeekpodcastWe are a part of the Boneless Podcast Network: https://goboneless.lovable.app/Merch:Tee Public: https://www.teepublic.com/seangeekpodcastRed Bubble: https://www.redbubble.com/people/seangeekpodcast/shop@seangeekpodcast on Twitter, Instagram and FacebookMentioned in this episode:New Merch AdAn ad that incorporates Red Bubble and Tee Public

FLASHBACK! Due perhaps to the passage of time, poorly handled reprinting by DC, or some other reason, Alan Moore's writing stint on Swamp Thing in the 1980s does not seem to get mentioned much today. Which is a shame, because it ranks with Moore's best work. And the art by Stephen Bissette and John Totleben … Continue reading #325 Alan Moore's “Swamp Thing”

We're dropping into your feed a day early for this St. Patrick's Day episode, as we look ahead to the August debut of HBO Max's Lanterns and discuss the first appearances of Green Lanterns Alan Scott and Hal Jordan -- followed for no particular reason by a couple of Tales of the Green Lantern Corps written by Alan Moore! First, in "The Green Lantern!" from 1940's All-American Comics #16, construction engineer Alan Scott meets a talking lantern that used to be … a meteor in ancient China? It's a whole thing. Then, in "S.O.S. Green Lantern!" and "Secret of the Flaming Spear!" from 1959's Showcase #22, test pilot Hal Jordan is selected to succeed dying space cop Abin Sur and become an intergalactic lawman! Last but not least, Green Lantern Tomar Re explains to his colleague Arisia just why "Mogo Doesn't Socialize" in 1985's Green Lantern #188! And we get a glimpse into Abin Sur's final moments in "Tygers" from 1986's Tales of the Green Lantern Corps Annual #2! Will Alan Scott and Hal Jordan prevail in their strikingly similar first adventures? Will Bolphunga the Unrelenting ever find the mysterious Mogo? Why does Abin Sur need a spaceship when his ring has the power of flight? And can these stirring tales of heroic space patrolmen survive the Blackest Night and break on through to that Brightest Day known as … The Comics Canon? In This Episode: ·       What can we call this radiation-sending device? ·       Green Lantern's archnemesis – The Yellow Lamp! ·       Plop! ·       Curt punches up the Green Lantern oath ·       Revenge of the Green Lanterns ·       Roy Thomas's interview with Golden Age Green Lantern creator Mart Nodell in Alter Ego Join us in two weeks as we discuss the 1982 inter-company crossover The Uncanny X-Men and the New Teen Titans!

"Compañeras de Labor" (1996) es un relato de terror escrito por Alan Moore que explora el tema de las brujas y la persecución. Ambientado en un contexto histórico, narra el tormento de dos brujas en la hoguera con un enfoque moderno sobre la libertad sexual, incluido en la antología "Trece para el Diablo" de Editorial Valdemar. Es una de esas joyas ocultas que demuestran por qué Alan Moore es considerado un arquitecto de la narrativa, incluso fuera de las viñetas del cómic. Incluido en su antología La voz del fuego, este relato es un ejercicio de estilo hipnótico, denso y profundamente atmosférico.

Frank Miller is regarded as one of the most influential and awarded creators. He began his career in comics in the late 1970s, first gaining notoriety as the artist, and later writer, of Daredevil for Marvel Comics. Next, came the science-fiction samurai drama Ronin, followed by the groundbreaking Batman: The Dark Knight Returns and Batman: Year One with artist David Mazzuchelli. Following these seminal works, Miller fulfilled a lifelong dream by doing an all-out crime series, Sin City, which spawned two blockbuster films that he co-directed with Robert Rodriguez. Miller's multi-award-winning graphic novel 300 was also adapted into a highly successful film by Zack Snyder. His upcoming memoir, Push the Wall: My Life, Writing, Drawing, and the Art of Storytelling, is now available for pre-order.This episode is brought to you by: Eight Sleep Pod Cover 5 sleeping solution for dynamic cooling and heating: EightSleep.com/Tim (use code TIM to get $350 off your very own Pod 5 Ultra.)Shopify global commerce platform, providing tools to start, grow, market, and manage a retail business: https://shopify.com/tim (one-dollar-per-month trial period)AG1 all-in-one nutritional supplement: DrinkAG1.com/Tim (1-year supply of Vitamin D (and 5 free AG1 travel packs) with your first subscription purchase.)Timestamps:[00:00:00] Start.[00:02:14] Aristotle's definition of happiness: Devotion to excellence.[00:03:02] Tools of the trade: Blackwing pencils, India ink, liquid frisket.[00:04:45] Sin City‘s physical creation at “twice up” size.[00:08:06] The toothbrush spatter technique.[00:09:24] Channeling impatience, anger, and violence into dramatic creative work.[00:10:33] What Jack Kirby knew about making comics competitive with cinema's spectacle.[00:11:56] Will Eisner and The Spirit‘s influence on the US market where writer-artist duality is rare.[00:13:33] How Jack Kirby blasted apart the panel grid (and a young Frank's mind).[00:15:49] Push the wall and defy the code.[00:19:54] The ruthless mentorship of Neal Adams.[00:24:57] The genesis of the Elektra amd Daredevil “soap opera.”[00:27:56] Story structure: Start late, end early.[00:29:10] Trusting the muse over rigid methodology.[00:31:15] European invasion: Moebius and Forbidden Planet.[00:32:52] Japanese influence: Lone Wolf and Cub‘s impact.[00:34:30] Cultural differences in depicting violence and motion.[00:36:38] Ronin: Shameless imitation and rebirth.[00:37:28] How does Frank know if something is working (or not working)?[00:39:27] The critical reception of Ronin as a “broken nose.”[00:42:37] The ruthless structure of The Dark Knight Returns.[00:43:40] Mutual elevation with “smartest fan” Alan Moore.[00:48:26] Robert Rodriguez: Angel of goodwill and generosity.[00:49:28] Sin City film: Co-directing and the Director's Guild sacrifice.[00:50:31] Working as a “two-headed beast” with Rodriguez.[00:55:27] Favorite films.[00:58:19] Books and ancient history inspiring 300.[00:59:00] Hollywood lessons: The importance of working with the right people.[01:01:13] The partnership and guidance of Silenn Thomas.[01:02:01] The clarity and creative rejuvenation of getting sober from alcohol.[01:04:48] Advice for aspiring comic artists: Story, story, story.[01:06:20] Learning to draw: Bridgman and Loomis books.[01:08:07] Perspective as a mathematical trick and lie.[01:11:00] Dick Giordano's advice: Lay in blacks first.[01:13:52] Sin City workflow innovation: Batch processing stages.[01:15:48] Dark Horse Comics and creative freedom.[01:17:29] Economy of line work and elegant minimalism.[01:20:46] On collaborating with Bill Sienkiewicz on Elektra.[01:25:20] Billboard wisdom: “Ask every question,” and “Why?”[01:27:08] Challenging pathological conformity.[01:27:39] Parting thoughts and where to find Frank's work.*For show notes and past guests on The Tim Ferriss Show, please visit tim.blog/podcast.For deals from sponsors of The Tim Ferriss Show, please visit tim.blog/podcast-sponsorsSign up for Tim's email newsletter (5-Bullet Friday) at tim.blog/friday.For transcripts of episodes, go to tim.blog/transcripts.Discover Tim's books: tim.blog/books.Follow Tim:Twitter: twitter.com/tferriss Instagram: instagram.com/timferrissYouTube: youtube.com/timferrissFacebook: facebook.com/timferriss LinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/timferrissSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
