The career-spanning short works of Alan
Moore are collected in this tome — with over 50 pages of additional material
not in the original mini-series. Added in are fascinating obscure interviews
about the man, his craft, and magic, as well as essays from Moore himself and
loads of additional new artwork. Yuggoth
Cultures and Other Growths features tons of Moore’s
classic short sequential comic book stories; stories that have been long out of
print, that have never before been seen, and special developmental sections
with original script pages and comments from Moore and the creators.
Included is the amazing Nightjar (with art by the great Bryan Talbot), plus many more tales
illustrated by Talbot, Juan Jose Ryp, Val Semieks, Mike Wolfer, Marat Mychaels,
Hunt Emerson, and Jacen Burrows. Rounding out the works is a piece that is
vital to any Alan Moore collection: I
Keep Coming Back, a coda to the masterpiece From Hell, with art by Oscar Zarate.
This massive volume also includes an
extensive interview with Moore, plus Antony Johnston’s Yuggoth Creatures, a work inspired by Yuggoth Cultures and the worlds of H.P. Lovecraft, with art by Ryp,
Burrows, Dheeraj Verma, and many more.
