Move Over, Alan Moore: This Gaming Webcomic Is Now A Webcomic About Gaming And FatherhoodWhen you think of the masters of graphic novels, one name reigns supreme: Alan Moore. The godfather of cerebral comic books rose to critical prominence with his brain-melting take on Swamp Thing in the eighties before changing the landscape of graphic storytelling forever with Watchmen, V For Vendetta, and From Hell.
