Swamp Thing: A Murder of Crows

’The man who started me upon this dark path promised me answers…
But the answers are black and unbearable.’

Swamp Thing’s quest for self-discovery with mystic John Constantine has led to one final moment of truth. A harbinger of doom has been released with the sole charge of waking an evil beyond comprehension, and swamp thing, John Constantine, Deadman, the Phantom Stranger, Etrigan, the Spectre and other masters of the occult must unite against a dark force which threatens to eradicate heaven’s Light. This classic saga by the legendary creative team of Alan Moore, Stephen Bissett, John Totleben, Stan Woch, Rick Veitch, Ron Randall and Alfredo Alcala continues the evolution of Swamp Thing from a mire-dwelling man-monster to a powerful elemental being with the potential to exceed the bonds of the earth itself.
Swamp Thing: A Murder of Crows overflows with sophisticated tales of horror. From a finely wrought crossover with the epic DC Maxiseries Crisis on Infinite Earths to Swamp Thing’s first audience with his brethren in the parliament of trees to the cataclysmic conclusion of the “American gothic” storyline, these are the stories that changed American comics forever.

The Complete D.R. & Quinch
With Alan Davis
The Delinquent Duo are back
From the subterranean depths of comics’ most innovative minds comes a supremely deranged duo. Alan Moore (Watchmen, Promethea) and Alan Davis (Captain Britain, X-Men) present the irredeemable D.R. & Quinch.
Outrageous, unrestrained and heavily armed, college students D.R. & Quinch are gleefully poor role-models for today’s youth. This collection comes complete with tips on death, extremely painful death and the art of total destruction. Wildly offensive tales of alien slime wars, deranged disaster movies, psychotic girlfriends and warped war veterans make for a volatile mix of malicious mayhem and deeply dark humour. Totally intense, man!

Voice Of The Fire
A dark Midwinter tale from the Heart of England.
Voice Of The Fire is a dark human history seen from the vantage point of a single place. Linked by a geographical radius of only ten miles, yet separated in time by a span of some 5000 years, each chapter brings us a different voice from the ashes of the past.
'One of the most remarkable, savage and, at times, unbearably beautiful "debut" novels of the year' Time Out
'Alan takes genuine risks and justifies them: you feel, all the way, the rush of discovery, authorial privilege endangered by the savage voices he allows into his head' Iain Sinclair
'Voice Of The Fire is an English songline: passing through time instead of space and stripped of the mystification that accrues when the irrational modern mind meets the ancient technology of the word' Gwyneth Jones
'Alan Moore (whose legendary capacity for mind-expansion makes Will Self look like a wuss), for those who missed the flurry of media interest in the eighties, pretty much invented the "graphic novel". Now he's come out to play with the big boys in "proper" literature they'd better watch out he doesn't steal the ball' Time Out
'A daring, unsettling work of literature' Locus
