Alan Moore
I don't tend to think in terms of favourites, as that would make my otherwise enjoyable tastes in relaxation into something of a competition. A (very) brief and changeable list of recommendations, in no particular order, would be Mike Moorcock's Cornelius quartet, Walter Miller's Canticle for Leibowitz, John Sladek's Muller-Fokker Effect, Brian Aldiss' Hothouse (one of the first science fiction novels I ever read), Bester's The Stars My Destination, Mike Harrison's The Machine in Shaft Ten, Ballard's Unlimited Dream Company, Phillip Bedford Robinson's Masque of a Savage Mandarin, Samuel Delaney's Dhalgren, Ellison's short stories, Judith Merrill's anthologies, Disch's Camp Concentration, Spinrad's Iron Dream, anything by Steve Aylett, and so on, potentially, forever.

Alan Moore:
Everyone is crazy, but some people are Genius Crazy (writers, poets, artists etc) or Crazy Crazy (psychopaths, politicians, Marlon Brando while filming Apocalypse Now) Or at least this is what I believe. My question is do you believe this as well and if so, do you think being one or both makes helps in making a great writer or does it have nothing to do with that?

Alan Moore:
Hi Alan, How are you? To be totally honest this question has nothing to do with horror, maybe to some. What direction do you think the animated version of The Killing Joke will take? The depiction of the Joker and a certain scene will definitely be a factor in what DC does. Also a cheat question; how does it feel to have influenced so many Batman stories/games/movies with that particular story? Take Care Pradeep
