I don't know how I could rank them. Prob...Oh God. I don't know how I could rank them. Probably Watchmen would come out on top followed closely by Miracleman. I haven't even read the entire Miracleman run 1) because of an IP mess, they don't have graphic novels, and some of Moore's later issues are notoriously hard to find and way expensive. I have the first 10 or so issues (usually the earlier issues in a run are harder to find. but it's simple economics -- they printed more of the earlier issues).<BR/><BR/>Though, I like Top Ten and Tom Strong, I think Moore's earlier stuff is much better. He did some interesting stuff with Rob Liefield's Supreme as well.<BR/><BR/>Some of Promethea lost me. Though because of your interests in Crowley, the occult and all that, I'm sure you'll like it a lot.Jonathan Rowehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04079637406589278386noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6564473.post-1142303309199960662006-03-13T21:28:00.000-05:002006-03-13T21:28:00.000-05:00Suggestion for a challenging post: how would you r...Suggestion for a challenging post: how would you rank the Moore books that you've read? We're talking strictly on a personal preference, favorite variety here not some ranking of the order of "best to worst."<BR/><BR/>My ranking:<BR/>1. "From Hell"<BR/>2. "Swamp Thing"<BR/>3. "Watchmen"<BR/>4. "League of Extraordinary Gentlemen Vol. 1"<BR/>5. "Tom Strong"<BR/>6. "Top 10" <BR/><BR/>I'm not including "V for Vendetta" because it really needs a second reading before I form a solid opinion of it. I've got Promethea from the library and intend to read it soon. "The Killing Joke also needs a second reading. To be honest, it'd be good to go through most of Moore's work a second time.David Swindlehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04326243279044404859noreply@blogger.com
