The best story of the type Morrison told in these ANIMAL MAN issues is "Pictopia" by Alan Moore and Don Simpson, in ANYTHING GOES # 2.



Like the characters in these stories, I too feel alienated from the dark world that modern comics have become, and dislike having characters who were formerly charming and familiar old friends morphed into dark and threatening "realistic" new versions, that I no longer like or am comfortable with.

Moore and Morrison have both lamented this dark trend in these above stories, while simultaneously making a huge contribution to darkening the market in their other work.

Again: WTF ?!?

Moore said in a COMIC BOOK ARTIST magazine interview that his ABC line, particularly his TOM STRONG series, was an attempt to regain that upbeat heroism.
