Unlike Moore’s ground-breaking work on Watchmen and From Hell, Promethea is more traditional fare. However, because it is by Alan Moore, this is still above the majority of comics/graphic novels being produced today. In some ways, this is Moore at his post-modern best, as the very nature of this character (channeled through the years by the artists that imagine her best) allows him to discuss the power of the creative imagination, while still indulging in the kind of esoterica that has filled his other work.
