So using Photoshop, he made some fixes. It's not the full issue, but what he made does look great. And as he said, "I for one am happy to see what might have been. Even if it is just a fantasy!" Take a look:
Alan Moore working for Rob Liefeld? One of the unlikeliest combinations in comics, and yet, for a short but prolific time, they made it Awesome.
Welcome
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!

Putting the Sprouse in New Jack
My friend Greg, who runs the great Ivory Icon Informer blog, recently put up a post that he's been working on for some time. As an admirer of the great Jack Kirby-tribute issue in Supreme: The Return #6, he has always been disappointed that Chris Sprouse had left the series before #6 was produced. As I wrote about in my Weekly Reading, Alan Moore's plan had been for Veitch to do the background and Kirby characters in that issue and Sprouse to handle all the images of Supreme. But without Sprouse, Veitch drew Supreme and was finished off by Rob Liefeld. It's still great, but it always bugged Greg.
So using Photoshop, he made some fixes. It's not the full issue, but what he made does look great. And as he said, "I for one am happy to see what might have been. Even if it is just a fantasy!" Take a look:
