no it was made into a jlu episode. this story line was in superman annual no. something. i forget. was even featured in past wizard issues as part of the greatest moments in comic history. Yup, yup. That would be from the classic SUPERMAN ANNUAL #11 story "FOR THE MAN WHO HAS EVERYTHING" by Alan Moore. BTW, DC has issued a trade paperback compiling all of the comics written by Alan Moore. Check it out.

Thanks for the info. Just goes to show masmagaling magwrite yung sa comics. Alan moore's collection is out this week but i'll just have to settle for the scan. Majority of whats in that TPB mayron na kasi ako. What's so odd is that Alan moore and DC have a love hate relationship. DC loves Alan moore's wrtiting since it brings them money and Alan well he hates everybody. I think he has a schizoid or schizotypal personality. Have you seen his pics? Grabe nakakatakot itsura nya. Not like Neil Gaiman

alan moore's watchmen is still something i shan't forget. hope v for vendetta's good. lxg the movie was really bad. (in fairness the movie adaptation of his novel from hell was quite good too)

Yup he read from his books in front of Fully booked GH. He was even interviewed in NU 107. Uber, it was even in the newspapers. My GF who doesnt read comics thought he was a movie star when we saw him at fully booked. I got pictures of him in my digicam kaso pangit ang view kasi because i was tip toeing. Man haba ng pila nun time na yun! I had him sign my Sandman HC.

yeah that's where i got my sandman vol 1. powerbooks has stocks sometimes too. i think vols 1 2 and 3 are the hardest to find. my faves are still vol 4 and 7. 4 where morpheus recieves the keys to hell and seven where morpheus and delirium search for destruction.
