What did you think, Sup Forums?

In retrospect Alan Moore's creepy bullshit should not have come as a surprise.

I enjoyed my own shitty combo crossover of Alice in Wonderland, Wizard of Oz, and Peter Pan involving dreams and nightmares and Little Nemo in Slumberland too.

trash

Someone should storytime on /aco/

I remember seeing this behind the counter at Borders when I was like 15 and having read about it in Comic Buyer's Guide and jacked off to some of the teaser art included so I desperately wanted it but I think it retailed for like 80 bucks or something ridiculous

torrent it, pleb

I bought this secondhand for like 50 bucks and I'd say it was worth it. The story is alright, and the porn is subpar, but it comes together pretty well. It is certainly not Moore's best work though.

I kind of want to smuggle this into my school library and leave it lying around. Just to see the reactions.

HS or uni?

Community college.

Pretty middle of the road, both as a comic and as porn. If anyone else had been the writer it would have been long forgotten.

I enjoyed it.

I've read Honor Harrington fapfics that were better than this. Still, not the worst thing ever written.

Since it's apologetically porn, the idea of buying it secondhand is weird to me. It's like paying money for a used Playboy

How sticky were the pages, user?

It's pretty shitty and surprisingly not very hot at all. Just kinda gross.

But like user said, not the worst thing ever.

interesting experiment in trying to make literary comic erotica

the girth and price of this book is the funniest thing to me, like he tried to make the sams club bulk size of Tijuana Bibles.

Critics say: A sensation! Comics star Alan Moore out-skeeves John Byrne!

Better question:
What would you have thought if the story was the same but the artist had been really really good?

I originally thought it was a interesting story about sexual awakening but then I read Moore's Vigilante and now I see it as proof of his pedophile tendencies.

Mildly interesting, but it would've been better as a full loli comic. The problem I have with legit western porn (stuff like Manara and so on) is that there's no point to it. It's so realistic that it might as well be just regular run-of-the-mill porn you get on porn sites. There is no break from reality, no emotional resonance. It fails to intrigue and engage me on a deeper level. Adults are boring.

This is where our artists and the Japanese come in, producing loads of basically everything. The scope of their imagination and output renders stuff like Lost Girls meaningless and trivial. It is not special. It is nothing groundbreaking or shocking. Neither in terms of story either. There's loli rape doujins with better stories than the pinnacle of capeshit.

In fact there's far better #34 of Alice, Wendy and Dorothy out there than anything Moore depicted. In fact I dare to say that it's good Lost Girls is disregarded, because normies ruin everything and the western drawn porn scene is wholly dependent on amateur artists within these here circles. We cannot afford shrieking womyns and busybodies to ruin this creative frontier. God knows that everything they touch turns to shit, from movies to vidya.

I went a bit beyond OP's question. My position is that good pornography is always fictional pornography that doesn't correlate with real life. It borrows from it, sure, but the directions it takes break away from the dullness of actual sex and actual people. It in fact is by necessity absurd, and things which would otherwise be terrible abominations in real life can be wonderful, romantic or otherwise ennobled by the passion of the artist and his emotions and intent.

I think Melinda Gebbie is a fantastic artist but it seems too much like a modern attempt to create Victorian pornography, or at least somehow project an inversion of those characters through this ersatz 19th-century eroticism.
Literally "asking a girl if she wants to come upstairs to "look at your etchings"", the comic.

I'm upset Alan Moore can get away with making porn with minors in a western comic but I know I can't since it would be career suicide

I mean, it can be both

>erotica
It's porn.

Please explain in detail

You mean the actual books?
