FASHION BEAST #1 |
|

AVATAR PRESS INC
(W) Alan Moore (A/CA) Facundo Percio
Alan Moore's unearthed screenplay comes to life as an incredible comic book
series almost three decades later! The mid-80's were a stunning period of
brilliance for Alan Moore, seeing him create true masterpieces including
Miracleman, Watchmen - and Fashion Beast! Working with Malcolm McLaren (Sex
Pistols), Alan Moore turned his attention to a classic re-telling of a fable
through his unyielding and imaginative vision. The two developed a story that
redefined Beauty and the Beast in a dystopian future city dominated by a fashion
house, which Moore then fully-scripted into a huge screenplay. Never previously
published, this epic work is now adapted for comics by long-time Moore
collaborator, Antony Johnston (Courtyard) preserving every scrap of Moore's
original dialogue. All ten issues have been lovingly illustrated by Facundo
Percio (Anna Mercury) and finally a true historical and visionary masterpiece is
finally released to the World! |
