The Outsider - inside Alan Moore's head

In this 8-part web series, produced by ARTE, Alan Moore, the author of seminal graphic novels like WatchmenV for Vendetta and From Hell, draws us into his world-view.

We follow one of the most influential artists of the modern age into a universe of occultism, mysticism and anarchy. Between dystopian visions and far-sighted social analysis, Moore explains how his comics are a swan song to our era.

Part Four: Born in the slums of Northampton, Alan Moore is a working class kid done good. His entire generation fought against the Thatcher years. But the real betrayal came from Labour-led by Tony Blair, who was too far on the right for the left-leaning Alan.

Presented via RTÉ's innovative content agreement with ARTE, the European culture TV channel.
