Alan Moore has given Uber, the superhero war comic by Kieron Gillen, Canaan White and Daniel Gete, his blessing.

The standout for me is Modded by Kieron Gillen and Ignacio Caleres which is, simply put, Mad Max meets Pokemon And they are bloody blatant about it as well. Ignacio also seems to be channelling a far more detailed Simon Bisley, which is utterly perfect for this project.   It's a time of post apocalyptic trial with lawlessness rife[...]

In August, talking about the then-most recent issue of The Wicked + The Divine, writer Kieron Gillen wrote on his tumblr, Pretty much everyone condemns internet harassment Hell, even those part of hate mobs do so, while refusing to admit that's actually what they're doing The sadness for Tara is obviously a big part of it,[...]
