Alan Moore:
Have you considered doing any work based on Henry Darger's "In the Realm of the Unreal"? Are there elements of his universe in any of your own?
Alan Moore
Although I find Darger’s work fascinating, I’m afraid I’m not familiar with enough of it to have really focussed on it in any serious way creatively. I remember that I’d suggested we could include a couple of Darger’s disturbingly hermaphroditic children in the 3D ‘Blazing World’ sequence of The Black Dossier, but unfortunately they were omitted for lack of space.

Alan Moore:
League of Extraordinary Gentlemen must one of the most ambitious literary deconstructions in all fiction. As it evolved from the "Victorian Justice League" to all stories ever, with the Black Dossier's setting in the 1950s and then Century, it went from public domain characters to those such as a certain British spy and boy wizard... Did you face any legal obstacles or criticisms from the owners of those properties?
