Steve Moore
Often described as the man who led Alan Moore astray (usually by Alan himself), Steve Moore (1949–2014) was a cranky old hermit who hardly lived in the 21st century at all. Starting in comics in the 1970s, he wrote mainly science-fiction and fantasy strips (sometimes under the name Pedro Henry) for a variety of British and American publishers, including titles such as Jonni Future, Laser-Eraser & Pressbutton and Tales of Telguuth. Occasionally taking a break to work on nonfiction in the oriental, historical and Fortean fields, he wrote on the I Ching (The Trigrams of Han) and edited the scholarly journal Fortean Studies. The year 2006 saw his novelization of the movie V for Vendetta, and 2011 saw his original novel, Somnium. The Moon and Serpent Bumper Book of Magic is the result of a lifelong collaboration with Alan Moore. A Fellow of the Royal Asiatic Society, he lived in London, and was neither related to Alan Moore nor anywhere near as hairy.
