AlanMooreVember: Squanchmen

Art by Jeaux Janovsky
Jeaux Janovsky asks me: "Who squanches the Squanchmen, smoky?"
 
The answer is above: a fantastic mash-up with Squanchy and Rick and Morty gang! 
 
Again Jeaux... you "did it!", mate!

AlanMooreVember: In Pictopia!

Art by Jeaux Janovsky
Yesterday entry by the usual suspect... Jeaux Janovsky. I love it! 
"It's based off of Quentin Tarantino's Reservoir Dogs, in particular the Michael Madsen cop torture ear scene. But mixed with Disney's Goofy and Beavis of Beavis and Butt-Head fame. 
Quite a mash-up." 
Indeed, Jeaux! Well done!

Again, a fantastic and funny idea (it's AlanMooreVember's entry dated 8th of November) from the explosive mind of Jeaux Janovsky. 
I am sure Marge and Promethea are laughing in Idea Space, a lot!

Neil Gaiman on a lost Bojeffries story

I've dug up this in my archives (which are bigger than Idea Space, I suspect).
 
Some months ago, Neil Gaiman commented on a Facebook post by Brian Bolland about The Bojeffries, here.
Gaiman wrote: "Many years ago, Alan described a Bojeffries story to me he would be writing. It was hilarious and heartbreaking. Some years later I asked about it, and he had absolutely no memory of it. Which says something about his prodigious imagination because I wouldn't have let one that good escape."

And then he added: "It was Ginda's wedding."

Alan Moore 68: a gift from Claudio Calia

Art by Claudio Calia
Today is Moore's 68th birthday! So, above a great portrait of The Man by Italian comics artist, teacher and popularizer CLAUDIO CALIA. Moore is wearing his classic hammer and sickle red t-shirt and declaiming a key passage from a past interview. The mask that Moore is holding is his hand is a reference to I Baccanti (The Bacchants), Calia's new series, and of course to V's mask.

Grazie, Claudio! Happy birthday, Alan!
