On outgrowing Moore: that's not unfair. Moore does have tropes and bits he returns to again and again, and some of his stuff works better than others.

That said, I think his tropes are richer and more interesting than most comics writers', and his batting average is higher.

Pre-movie Watchmen was a revelation, and remains one of the high-water marks of superhero comics. His short pieces for things like the Green Lantern Corps and The Spirit Archives remain influential classics. The Killing Joke, problematic though it is, is still the best Joker story ever. Whatever Happened To The Man Of Tomorrow? was a perfect eulogy for pre-Crisis Superman continuity. His run on Supreme is delightful. From Hell, again pre-movie, is a stunning look inside a conspiracy theory. D.R. & Quinch was hilarious. V For Vendetta was a landmark indictment of the Thatcherite neo-fascism that Britain has too easily endorsed since then. And you know what, I absolutely loved Lost Girls. It was one of the most thoughtful, funny, sexy comics I've ever read, and it engaged fearlessly with complicated issues of fiction and fantasy that most people prefer to ignore.

...do forgive my loquacity, I'm quite drunk. But I stand by all of the above statements.
