@@gungholio3416 the original agreement for Watchmen was that once it left print (which back then was pretty much expected back then), the rights would go to Moore. Watchmen ended up so successful that it's never left print, thus DC has never given him the rights, and instead held onto them because of its popularity, doing sequels and spin-offs without Moore.
DC just had to screw this man over!! They had a great relationship going but they had to get greedy. Could you imagine all the comics Alan could have written after Watchmen for DC... smh, if only we had a time machine to go back.
It’s called a contract, Moore got a shit ton of money for watchmen. He agreed to the terms. So please explain how he was treated badly. The man had creative freedom unheard of at the time.
I used to watch this show when I was a kid... Get Fresh. It was a cool concept. The set was a huge space ship and it would land every saturday morning at a different place in the UK, often a theme park or an out door convention type space, i Might have it mixed up with saturdat Starship though. They would have pop/ rock stars celberities and actors etc. coming on to promote their stuff. They would often have points of intrest peices like this on as well. every channel had the eqivellent show. it would last the whole morning and would be a kind of platform for the cartoons and kids shows and music videos
He's *so* young. It's amazing, he looks basically the same as he does now, but you can't miss that here he's like 20 years younger.
That’s typical of 99% of human beings , but I get what you’re saying
@@eoinmulvaney9066 Yeah but Alan Moore doesn't look like 99% of human beings, I think we can all agree.
You can tell they're in the future because of the beeps.
Before he became a wizard, mall Santa and Rasputin impersonator. A living legend!
It's weird to see him being kind, light hearted and smiling
If DC didn't fuck him over he would probably still be like that.
@@theraptor6973 I don't know much about comics. What did dc do to alan moore?

@@toqkaizogou1636 That's fucked up. DC sucks
@@gungholio3416 You should read about Superman's creators and Bill Finger.
Fabulous man, a kind and considerate genius
I know this was a different time but holy Christ on a crutch that guys mullet 😳
Years ago at a Forbidden planet signing we queued. He signed my Watchmen comics… all the questions in my head to ask…I saw the beard, and froze….
Allan Moore Is a fucking genius
I love Moore's work
All that I've been reading lately
❤️❤️❤️
Love this Guy.
I met the host of this show, in legoland windsor, when i was 9.
Gaz Top!

My Kubert school dream was his Swamp Thing & Rick Veitch too... Hart D. Fisher credited me as Christian Moore on my ink job 1994
After Alan Moore, what else can one say? Oh, you can whisper Neal Gaiman, or mutter Warren Ellis, but really, now...
@GeorgenotSmith (Excuse me, that's *Neil* Gaiman, of course.)
What year was that?
Probably about 1986 as he said Watchmen was coming out soon
I swear @ 2:41 the host calls him Ian; you can see Alan raise his brow slightly :)
I have never in my life had to squint so hard in order to hear something.
