Welcome

So a long time ago (the mid-1990s), the greatest writer in comics agreed to take over the writing duties for Image Comics' Supreme. He would radically reshape the character, the book, and due to forces beyond his control, a whole comic book universe. And it led to an award-winning run of comics, three additional titles (among several proposed) and ultimately led to the genesis of Moore's much better known America's Best Comics. And then it all went out of print and was forgotten by way too many.

Having gathered quite a bit of information about Moore's Supreme and Awesome runs, I decided to create a home for the forgotten Awesome. Over the course of a year, I put it all together here.

Each week I did a main "Weekly Reading" post that was a read-through of that issue. I followed that up with a couple of other posts about topics from that Weekly Reading or whatever else I came up with to talk about. You'll find the lost Youngbloods in the Youngblood section and the fan-edit of the last Supreme in After Awesome.

Below is the archive of posts broken up by book. Thanks for checking the site out!

Alan Moore's Dracula: The New European

In 1997, to honor the 100th anniversary of Bram Stoker's Dracula, Harris put out a one shot featuring stories by Warren Ellis, Alan Moore and James Robinson featuring Vampirella and Dracula. Moore's dealt with imagining Dracula in the 1990s and featured some stunning art by Gary Frank. Dynamite, which owns Vampirella, was nice enough to post the whole story here.













In the original comic, they also featured this interview with Moore. (Sorry for the bad scans.)
