from wired.com -- an interview with "Legendary Comics Writer Alan Moore on Superheroes, The League, and Making Magic"... good stuff here.
Moore with his scathing remarks about American comics and other stuff like:
"Everybody knew that comics were for children and for intellectually subnormal people, whereas graphic novel sounds like a much more sophisticated proposition."
and
"The average age of the audience now for comics, and this has been the case since the late 1980s, probably is late thirties to early fifties—which tends to support the idea that these things are not being bought by children. They're being bought in many cases by hopeless nostalgics or, putting the worst construction on it, perhaps cases of arrested development who are not prepared to let their childhoods go, no matter how trite the adventures of their various heroes and idols."
