Not to say he doesn't have one, of course, but he is much less preachy than Moore. Although I would put DKR and Watchmen as a solid tie for second best graphic novel, with the first place honors being split between Bone (I count the whole series) and Death: The High Cost of Living. |
Wait... You call Moore preachy and then prop up Death: The High Cost of Living, the originator of the whiny emo book genre? Death was good, but I found parts of it insufferable and definitely not on the level of Watchmen or a handful of Moore's other work.
Props to the Bone nod, though. Bone was bloody freakin' brilliant (though the last few trades didn't live up to the earlier work... I let it slide because it was almost impossible to live up to the first two trades in that series).
