This book explores Alan Moore's career as a cartoonist, as shaped
by his transdisciplinary practice as a poet, illustrator, musician
and playwright as well as his involvement in the Northampton Arts
Lab and the hippie counterculture in which it took place. It traces
Moore's trajectory out from the underground comix scene of the
1970s and into a commercial music press rocked by the arrival of
punk. In doing so it uncovers how performance has shaped Moore's
approach to comics and their political potential. Drawing on the
work of Bertolt Brecht, who similarly fused political dissent with
experimental popular art, this book considers what looking
strangely at Alan Moore as cartoonist tells us about comics, their
visual and material form, and the performance and politics of their
reading and making.
