It is actually quite a few years since I was last in London, I think I am going to make an effort and go to this, meet a few people while I am down.

Legendary graphic novelist Alan Moore considers the work of Henry Fuseli and his contemporaries. Moore has worked in the comic book industry for over 25 years and is credited with redefining the genre through the introduction of adult themes, intricate plots and challenging subject matter. Best known for his ground-breaking works Watchmen (1986–7) and V for Vendetta (1982–5), several of Moore’s books have also been made into films, including From Hell (2001) and The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen (2003). In this talk Moore – himself a practising magician – leads a tour focusing on visionary heroism, ungovernable forces and superheroes.
