Filed under: FOX, Animation, Celebrities Alan Moore, known to comic book fans as the writer for The Watchmen, The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen, Constantine, V for Vendetta, From Hell, and the recent Lost Girls, a tale about Dorothy from The Wizard of Oz, Wendy from Peter Pan and Alice from Alice in Wonderland stepping out of their fantastical worlds and engaging in real-life sex, will appear in a future episode of The Simpsons titled "Husbands and Knives." Moore figures into a subplot involving a new comic book store that opens in town and threatens to put Comic Book Guy out of business. The new store gets even more notice when Moore decides to pay it a visit. Moore is a fan of The Simpsons, and the feeling is mutual: many of The Simpsons' staff are also fans of Moore's work. His graphic novel The Watchmen is considered by many to be the first foray into comic books aimed at an adult audience. Apparently this philosophical series of "Garfield" strips from 1989 came too late. [via Toon Zone] Read | Permalink | Email this | Linking Blogs | Comments
