I have to get all this stuff. I remember reading a couple of Moore issues from a buddy and loved it.

Jillikers! The last time I thought about this I was actually holding it--but then bought a TPB of V for Vendetta instead! I'm going to have to re-add this to the huge list of things I keep wanting to pick up!

This thread inspired me to buy the two trades (since I can't easily locate the originals) on eBay. Just finished rereading those stories--can't recommend them highly enough! Sad thing is, I bet Alan Moore had a LOT more Supreme stories to tell.

Yay, Lardy!
Check eBay for Moore's 2-issue stint on YOUNGBLOOD (that's all that series lasted) and the concluding chapter in AWESOME ADVENTURES # 1... Suprema and other SUPREME-characters are there, it's a great li'l arc!

I'm glad to see this thread is back. Just this week I dug out my Supremes and have been rereading the entire run. It just feels good reading good comics, youknowwhatI'msayin'?

OK, with Xmas rolling up, its time I finally put my money where my mouth is (years later ) and get these.
So, in addition to Supreme and Youngblood, what other Moore 'Image' stories were there (Image in the sense of the companies that were part of the origional image, including Wildstorm and Liefield's stuff)? Top Ten, correct? And was Promethia by Moore?
Didn't he also have a brief run on Lee's Wildstorm comics?

Promethea, Top Ten and Tom Strong were published by DC/Wildstorm... all fully independent of Moore's Image-y stuff and set in Moore's ABCverse (America's Best Comics imprint).

Top Ten was incredible. I loved it. Promethea was visually stunning but had many arcane details so one would need some knowledge of Tarot, or Kaballah, to understand it in depth but it was a very good read nonetheless. The Alan Moore Supreme run, and all the "flashbacks" drawn in many styles from the 40s to the 70s was also very, very good. It made me a fan of Supreme. And it had the League of Infinity. Legion AR stuff, natch!

So, three & a half years later I finally put my money where my mouth is, and today I bought SUPREME: THE STORY OF THE YEAR TPB (I'm so glad it wasn't a hardcover--I like the cheaper paper backs better!). Mainly, I did it because I'm so frustrated with Marvel and DC comics these days that I'm starting to lose any real enthusiasm for comics in general these last few months (Fables and some others keeping me in love with my hobby every few weeks), and I really got angry when I read about the spoilers for Titans East. I finally said 'screw it', walked over to Midtown Comics while I was in Manhattan today and bought it.
Can't wait to read it. I read part #1 on the train home from Manhattan. Awesome so far. I think this will do the trick. I think my new 'collecting goal' is to get all Moore 'Image' stuff.
