Moore (was read by Gaiman) on what happen during Julius Schwartz's memorial
Why am I getting a flashback to MYSTERY MEN here?
"I've got a letter here, from my, uh....friend, yeah, uh you might know him: Captain Amazing?" And then he reads off his grocery list.
Besides, Alan Moore believes that all stories are true...so we're both right.
What is it exactly Alan Moore believes, anyway? I knew it was something kooky and eccentric, but I didn't think it was THAT bizarre.
But to add to your conspiracy theory, I was actually in London for a semester in 1981, and did some reporting for the US comics press on Marvel UK. I visited the offices a few times, and they invited me to do some writing for them -- unfortunately, I didn't have a work permit, and I'd have had to leave the country and apply and then return, and I couldn't afford it. But they showed me a bunch of costume designs for the new Captain Britain by this new guy, Alan Davis, and had I gotten that work permit, I might have gotten that gig when Dave Thorpe left.
And who knows where that might have led...?
In light of this new evidence, the odds are adjusted to 50 to 1 for Busiek being Alan Moore.
Incidentally, if I was to "disappear" from this and other forums without explanation, it is almost assuredly because Kurt Busiek had me killed.
YOU ALL WERE WITNESSES!
ME: "But...but I really love ASTRO CITY!"BUSIEK: (the glow of a cigarette lighting his rugged features)
"You should have kept your trap shut, kid. Button that lip, you're going for a RIDE."[/list]
What are the odds of that, though?
50 to 1. So I'll sleep easy tonight.
