![]() ![]() NEONOMICON collects Alan Moore's comic book series for the first time in its entirety - including his original graphic novel, THE COURTYARD, which chronicled Aldo Sax's tragic encounter with the (somewhat) mortal agents of the Old Ones! Available in softcover and hardcover formats, with illustrated covers by Jacen Burrows (CROSSED). ![]() From their interrogation of Sax (where he spoke exclusively in inhuman tongues) to a related drug raid on a seedy rock club rife with arcane symbols and otherworldly lyrics, they suspect that they are on the trail of something awful… but nothing can prepare them for the creeping insanity and unspeakable terrors they will face in the small harbor town of Innsmouth. Del Toro is a huge Alan Moore fan, so the connection is not accidental. Now here we are in 2010 and we are finally getting ready to release. Correction: the Shape of Water was like Neonomicon (the comic came out first). Written by Alan Moore Illustrated by Jacen BurrowsĬomic book legend Alan Moore (WATCHMEN) and brilliant artist Jacen Burrows deliver a chilling tale of Lovecraftian horror! Brears and Lamper, two young and cocky FBI agents, investigate a fresh series of ritual murders somehow tied to the final undercover assignment of Aldo Sax -the once golden boy of the Bureau, now a convicted killer and inmate of a maximum security prison. Collecting THE COURTYARD and NEONOMICON, the epic tome has all of the stories that lead into PROVIDENCE Comic book legend Alan Moore and brilliant artist Jacen. In 2003 Antony Johnston and myself adapted the Courtyard for Avatar with Moore standing in as acting editor on the project. ![]()
