Comics Crux

   

Alan Moore is at it again as he brings fans yet another awesome reading experience with his newest book Unearthing. Announced just this morning by Top Shelf Productions and Knockabout Comics, the project has been several years in the making. Unearthing is a narrative art-book written by Alan Moore with photography by Mitch Jenkins. It’s the combination of the biography of author, orientalist and occultist, Steve Moore (no relation), who is also Moore’s close friend and mentor.The book also details a history of London, a mystical journey, and a tribute to human imagination. The New York Times calls the book ““A tribute to a colleague and mentor and a demonstration that Moore has transcended the boundaries of the graphic novel.”

In the upcoming October Diamond Previews, UNEARTHING will be offered in three editions with an exclusive third edition incorporating a letterpress bookplate, hand-signed & numbered by Alan Moore and Mitch Jenkins, limited to 300 copies worldwide.Starting today, the 300 Signed & Numbered “double-sized hardcover” copies are being pre-sold as a Top Shelf website exclusive.
