Rezensionen
Mr. Moore, a native of Northampton, England, distinguished himself as a darkly philosophical voice in the medium of comic books a rare talent whose work can sell solely on the strength of his name. The New York Times

"Dark, gripping storytelling." Entertainment Weekly

It is a good book, it is smart, and there's no doubt that it remains relevant. The Guardian

Moore's work has great depth. It shows a dirty world with ugly, fully-realized characters. IGN

A complex, involving narrative. AV Club

It s difficult not to be sucked into V s take on anarchy. PopMatters
