I don't think he needs presentation, but this comic book genius is personally quite unique and even though Watchmen, V for Vendetta and Lost Girls impressed me, I didn't had seen how complex was him until I read the 12 issues of Tomorrow Stories that actually left me wondering that if all that was written by him, since it goes from the very experimental stories of not-so-ambiguously sexual Cobweb where one issue was written as a Little Lulu story and another was a pastiche of XIX century illustrations sharing its pages with The Greyshirt, a The Spirit-type of Superhero where most stories were told by villains in different forms (one story was told in the form of a building, each floor was a diferent decade seen how the villain's killer was abused by him through the years and another one was entirely told through the mirrors of a cab) and not far from here in the same magazine there is The First American and U.S. Angel, a hilarious take that to the archetypical all-american superhero with references to pop culture (the First American, for example have had about 6 or 7 sidekick boys who have died for his own's incompetence or one of the first issues where he and U.S. Angel fight against Jerry Springler) and who could forget Johnny B. Quick, a boy genius whose misunderstanding of aphorisms makes him make floating cats by glueing the to butter toasts or trying to stop the light so this could follow traffic regulations? Personally, it's impressive how all this came from the same mind.

Mr. Moore, I salute you!
