Synopsis

Written by Alan Moore Art and cover by David Lloyd "Perhaps Moore's most powerful work." -PORTLAND MERCURY A new trade paperback edition of the graphic novel that inspired the hit movie! A powerful story about loss of freedom and individuality, V FOR VENDETTA takes place in a totalitarian England following a devastating war that changed the face of the planet. In a world without political freedom, personal freedom and precious little faith in anything comes a mysterious man in a white porcelain mask who fights political oppressors through terrorism and seemingly absurd acts. It's a gripping tale of the blurred lines between ideological good and evil. This new trade paperback edition of the classic series from writer Alan Moore (WATCHMEN, LEAGUE OF EXTRAORDINARY GENTLEMEN) and artist David Lloyd (HELLBLAZER) collects the epic miniseries and features the improved production values and coloring from the 2005 hardcover.

Media Reviews
Mr. Moore, a native of Northampton, England, distinguished himself as a darkly philosophical voice in the medium of comic books -- a rare talent whose work can sell solely on the strength of his name. --The New York Times

Dark, gripping storytelling. --Entertainment Weekly

It is a good book, it is smart, and there's no doubt that it remains relevant. --The Guardian


Moore's work has great depth. It shows a dirty world with ugly, fully-realized characters. --IGN

A complex, involving narrative. --AV Club

It's difficult not to be sucked into V's take on anarchy. --PopMatters
