this comment reminds me of this review of League of Extraordinary Gentlemen

http://mindlessones.com/2011/08/18/the-league-of-extraordinary-gentlemen-century-1969-the-annocommentations-part-iv/

Zom: I don’t want to spend 1000 words defending another sex crime in another Alan Moore comic. I’ve stated elsewhere that I think most, maybe all, instances of sexual assault in Moore’s comics can at the very least be cogently argued for, if not always entirely satisfactorily. The problem comes with the sheer volume of them: Violate enough fictional women and you start to look like you like it.

I suggested in our annocomments for 1910 that perhaps Moore is of the opinion that sexual violence is deeply embedded within any culture of violence or habitually violent psychology fullstop. I have no statistics, but rape (as in rape and pillage) has always been part of war, and I suspect that rape features in the history of a great many violent people. There’s also the brute fact that rape is massively under reported. Perhaps as a culture we edit sexual assault out of violence because on some level we want to maintain the fantasy that violence can be noble, as in Just War, and entertaining, as in just about every popular entertainment you could mention.

Until Moore’s interviewed by someone with balls enough to ask him what’s up we’ll never know what the man actually thinks, but regardless I’m not completely against the idea of a writer of violent fictions (and Moore, like most popular and unpopular writers, is most certainly that) splicing sexual violence back into the picture, as long as it’s done so responsibly. Which I suppose takes us full circle, and back to precisely what it is that Moore’s doing here, rather than generalities about his body of work.

(OT like a big smelly OT-thing) This was posted in 2011. I'd be interested to see how the discussion of sex in Moore's work changes in the context of the release of "Lost Girls". I've been reading Alan Moore for a long time and while initially I would have agreed with this comment, something about how he approached lost girls squicked me BIG TIME. (Not the premise, something else) and now I read the totality of his work very, very differently.

ayrt

to be honest I've never dared read anything by him

there's always something really off and unsettling about all his work

I think he's not a very sane person and/or has things humans were not meant to see and it shows
