from today's Times

Let me preface this by saying I'm not particularly a comic book afficianado, nor do I particularly know all that much about the Alan Moore saga, but what I wouldn't give to see what he's got lying aorund his house:

Today, he resides in the sort of home that every gothic adolescent dreams of, one furnished with a library of rare books, antique gold-adorned wands and a painting of the mystical Enochian tables used by Dr. John Dee, the court astrologer of Queen Elizabeth I. He shuns comic-book conventions, never travels outside England and is a firm believer in magic as a "science of consciousness." "I am what Harry Potter grew up into," he said, "and it's not a pretty sight."

I am interested in, aside from the cool stuff in his house, the degree to which he understands the story (his and the analogy) as a tradgedy.
