RE: True Detective And The Psychosphere Of Aluminum And Ash
I enjoyed this show. I don't know if you noticed, but I was slightly dismayed to find Alan Moore quoted almost word-for-word at a couple of points during this, most notably the very end scene with Rust in his wheelchair. The quote is from Alan Moore's Top Ten, if I remember rightly, where the giant space horse is dying because he has been fused in a botched teleportation maneuver with a random commuter. No cops can attend the scene because they are all caught up with a major vampire case, as I remember. It's a good show though despite the apparent plagiarism. I'm struggling to remember the other example, but I'll let you know if I do. Ultimately, I found True Detective a bit bleak for my taste.
Good catch!
Hurray! You found it! I've lent out my copies of most of my Alan Moore collections so I came up empty. I'm hoping my brain will come up with the other quote from True Detective that's very Moore before too long. :-)
I'm gonna see if I can find my old comic books to check my facts.
