Novel Research.

Alan Moore, author of many acclaimed comics, is a controversial man. Alan Moore is an anarchist, and worships a Roman snake diety names Glycon. He wrote the graphic comic, "Watchmen," which I am currently engulfed in. He's a very different type of writer because he was the first author to apply literary and formalist sensibilities to the mainstream of the comic book realm. This is evident in, "Watchmen," he created this comic in the interest of mature readers. Watchmen is non-linear and told from multiple points of view, it's also graphic, and vulgar. Although the content of the book may cause some people disgust, and disapproval, it displays the reality of life, and the goings-on. A large idea of the book is the cold war, and the behavior, and paranoid thoughts amongst the citizens. Alan Moore captures the raw, and unedited thoughts, and the backlash of all the commotion. Alan Moore could not have written the novel in a more superior way.
