comickal: alan moore does porn? finally!

Cinescape - The Virtues of Vice: The Alan Moore Interview, Part One:
After years of starts and stops, Alan Moore and Melinda Gebbie’s LOST GIRLS will see print in August of this year in a three-volume hardcover set from Top Shelf Productions. The idea is classic Moore -- three of literature’s most famous female protagonists -- Dorothy Gale, Alice Fairchild, and Wendy Darling -- meet in a hotel in Austria in 1913 for an adventure of sorts. Yet, unlike Moore’s past works, LOST GIRLS unrestrainedly addresses and embraces its characters’ sexuality. Make no mistake -- LOST GIRLS is a work of pornography. It is not the dainty erotica you might find in your mother’s nightstand. Moore and Gebbie unflinchingly present all manner of sex acts, both pleasant and, at times, shocking. However, no one can argue that LOST GIRLS belongs on the same shelf as a tattered issue of JUGGS. It is a work of art, as beautiful in its execution as it is defiant in its subject matter. Place it next to the KAMA SUTRA or De Sade’s PHILOSOPHY IN THE BEDROOM on your shelf.


I've been hearing about this title for years now. Nice to know that it's finally going to be gathered together and completed.

And hey! giant phalluses in the porn! so what's not to like? (You have to read the interview to understand that reference. So go. Read.)
