Editorials

From Barnes & Noble

Now regarded as a graphic novel masterpiece, V for Vendetta entered the world in 1982 as a simple black-and-white strip in the U.K. comic "Warrior." Alan Moore's sharp writing and the vivid artistry of David Lloyd combined to make this dystopian novel at first a cult favorite and then a recognized classic. This stunning edition contains previously uncollected early sketches and art.
