Has anyone read the Mighty Moore's new opus for Avatar Press. It's really something special with awesome artwork by Jacen Burrows and some of his strongest comics work in ages.

It's definitely the best thing Moore has done in a while.

I just read the whole background, The Courtyard and Neonomicon.

As well as all the available issues.

I couldn't put it down.

I feel like I'm losing... not my mind, but something. I feel like I'm losing something.

I feel wrong.

Neonomicon and The Courtyard really have that feeling...Providence not so much. I feel that the tone in the latter is a lot more varied, we have horror/mystery but also moments of comedy and pathos.

But yeah there is this sense of uncanny around it, I am thinking of the issue where Robert Black reads the Kitab and the panel artwork conveys how weird it is.

Chapter's out, we've finally reached providence, and—

Jesus, man, someone throw a bucket of cold water at these two! That escalated quickly!
