Alan Moore:
How do you feel about the legacy of the Watchmen? Particularly its impact on authors who seemed to miss that the violence served a purpose and seemed to use it as a license to glorify violence with their own work.
Alan Moore
As I’ve already harped on about for probably far too long, Watchmen is one of the many books that I can no longer take any interest in. As regards its legacy, if any, then I imagine it will be as you say, with people using the supposedly ‘serious’ and ‘adult’ nature of Watchmen as a justification for the fairly adolescent sex and violence in their own work. I certainly don’t see many people attempting to equal or better its storytelling innovations, which would have been the only part of any supposed legacy that I could have really cared about.

Alan Moore:
Everyone is crazy, but some people are Genius Crazy (writers, poets, artists etc) or Crazy Crazy (psychopaths, politicians, Marlon Brando while filming Apocalypse Now) Or at least this is what I believe. My question is do you believe this as well and if so, do you think being one or both makes helps in making a great writer or does it have nothing to do with that?
