Promethea

Aug 20, 2004 Spider link
so I just found myself spending hours upon hours consuming Alan Moore's work "Promethea". Admittedly, I'm a bit of a sucker for Moore, then again, who isn't after "The watchmen"?

Now though, I'm thinking that maybe our slavish devotion to the lady is misguided, maybe this solid chunk of Prometheus hull is only to keep us safe as we spring through the immateria...

...from which we shall come, blazing in the glory, the new clear dawn, sprung forth through the lady, brought through the passage, fire shall reign supreme, and the science-heroes shall fall by the blade!

Yes, but they were more attractive.

Well, I'm sure you can find a copy in a local used comics store ( or amazon/ebuy ) , or, failing that, you might even be able to sneak into one of your local p2p nets for a copy of the scans. ;)

Interesting reading, if you like the imagery they paint up. some lovely use of style and colour.

i liked moore's lxg comic. if promethea is as fun as the former, i need to read it.

Promethea is a play with mythos, exploration of Crowley's tarot and other of the more obscure pieces. An entertaining read.
