Find out all we know about werewolves, wild transformations, silver bullets, and other facts that help us separate reality from legend in this exciting book!Did you know that the first stories about werewolves date back to ancient Greece? For thousands of years, tales about people who can transform into wolves have entertained readers. But werewolves of the past were more than just folktales—many people believed that werewolves were real. One of the earliest known werewolf trials took place in 1428, when a person was accused of being a werewolf! Today, werewolves are frequently featured in movies, TV shows, and books. From the classic novel The Werewolf of Paris to Clawdeen Wolf of Monster High, there is no shortage of wolf-like characters to explore. But are werewolves simply a myth or do they actually roam the forests and woods to live alongside us? Find out before the next full moon.

A new printing of the timeless master-class in sequential storytelling! The maesto of comic book writing shares his thoughts on how to deliver a top notch script! The main essay was originally written in 1985 and appeared in an obscure British fanzine, right as Moore was reshaping the landscape of modern comics, and had been tragically lost ever since. But it's all here, collected as one graphic novel, and heavily illustrated by Jacen Burrows. Alan Moore also provides a brand new essay on how his thoughts on writing have changed in the two decades since he first wrote it. For fans of Moore's work, new writers, or anyone who wants a peak behind the mental curtain of one of the greatest living writers, this is a can't miss book!
