The comics medium is sublime

Excerpts from an interview published on Newsarama. The complete piece is available HERE.

Moore is talking about his 'What We Can Know About Thunderman' story from Illuminations.
Alan Moore: [...] The comics medium is perfect. It is sublime. The comics industry is a dysfunctional hellhole. [...] The medium can do anything. Its potential is still almost completely untapped. So it was attempting to express my love of the medium, some of the wonderful people who worked in it, and to also express my horror at the fact that this this little offshoot, the superhero genre, has become a monoculture that's in danger of taking down at least a considerable part of the comics medium with it when superhero movies finally aren't interesting. When that happens, my worry is that a lot of the comic shops won't be able to continue and a lot of interesting independent comics would perhaps not have outlets.
