A frightening and powerful tale of the loss of freedom and identity in a chillingly totalitarian world, this book stands as one of the highest achievements of the comics medium and a defining work for creators Alan Moore, and David Llyod. Set in an imagined future England that has given itself over to fascism, this groundbreaking story captures both the suffocating nature of life in an authoritarian police state and the redemptive power of the human spirit which rebels against it. Crafted in sterling clarity and intelligence, this story brings an unequaled depth of characterization and verisimilitude to its unflinching account of oppression and resistance. -- Publisher description
