After reading about the controversy surrounding Alan Moore and Melinda Gebbie's Lost Girls I needed to see it for myself. I got part 1 from the library last week and read it. It's nicely done and is indeed rather explicit. For anyone who hasn't heard of it, it's basically a pornographic graphic novel starring Alice (of Wonderland), Wendy (from Peter Pan) and Dorothy (Oz). I say pornographic only in that there's a lot of explicit sex and since it's a comic book the reader can't really skim over those sections without missing most of the story.
