ALAN MOORE TO APPEAR IN THE SIMPSONS
It’s only natural really, though it may sound odd-ish. Alan Moore is going to guest star on an episode of The Simpsons.
According to Nothants News.com, the ball began rolling last summer when Melinda Gebbie, Moore’s collaborator on Lost Girls and fiancée was in the US for Comic-Con and to promote Lost Girls. As the paper reports, Moore is a long-time fan of The Simpsons, and was thrilled with the idea when it was pitched to him after a producer from the series approached Gebbie.
"I was happy to do it. I'm a big fan of The Simpsons." Moore told the paper. And – for those keeping track of Moore’s affection for US-produced animation, the writer has revealed to Newsarama and other outlets that he’s also a huge fan of South Park.
As for Moore’s storyline, he will voice a character in a subplot which sees a new “cool” comic shop opening in Springfield, in competition with Android’s Dungeon (operated by wince-inducing Comic Book Guy). No air date for the episode, entitled "Husbands and Knives" has been announced.

No, no es malo, suena hasta divertido; pero siendo honestos jamás me imagine a Mr. Moore haciendo algo así, sobre todo considerando su perfil “antimediático”. Lo que hay que ver.
Por cierto…
Escritor, guionista, músico, ocultista; Alan Moore es una de las tres “Vacas Sagradas” del mundo de los comics; un escritor extraordinario, excéntrico y de una genialidad exquisita. Revolucionó el medio durante los ochenta no sólo en cuanto a narrativa, si no también en el nivel de historias, dándole al comic un carácter, maduro, profundo y serio. Sus novelas son de lo mejor que se ha publicado en la industria.
Entre sus obras más afamadas se encuentran “The Watchmen”, “V for Vendetta”, “The Killing Joke”, “From Hell” y “The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen”, entre muchas otras más.
Y ahora será amarillo… chale.
Un abrazo y que pasen un excelente finde.
