The Most Important Comic Book on Earth

This October, Alan Moore will contribute to The Most Important Comic Book on Earth, a book to be released by DK. The story will be drawn by Melinda Gebbie.

The book, compiled by writer and producer Paul Goodenough, will include more than 120 stories on environmentalism from celebrities, scientists, comedians, charities, activists, and artists. 

Goodenough said: "We are uniting the most important environmental voices on the planet: from indigenous people to activists, from storytellers to celebrities, and helping them collaborate to craft moving comic stories."
Besides Moore, confirmed contributors include Ricky Gervais, Cara Delevingne, Taika Waititi, Patrick Stewart, Jane Goodall, Lenny Henry, Yoko Ono and Peter Gabriel among others. 

"The publication of The Most Important Comic Book on Earth is a significant part of a broader, cross-charity campaign called Rewriting Extinction, founded by Goodenough,” DK explained. “Working with charities including World Land Trust, The Wildlife Trusts, Reserva YLT, Born Free, Rewilding Europe and Re:wild, the project aims to raise awareness and fundraise for conservation projects around the world.”  

The Most Important Comic Book on Earth will be published on 28th October in the UK and the 2nd November 2021 in the US and Australia.

Excerpt from The NeneQuirer interview with Melinda Gebbie. 

The complete article is available here.

Melinda Gebbie: "I started writing a diary in my twenties. I thought if I write about my life it will get more interesting. And it did. [...]

This has been a very long project. I transcribed everything by hand then realised that was stupid but I always had something against typing so I couldn’t make myself type. I had four different typists. It’s been edited by a really hot pro, Donna Bond, she did a spiffing job. [...]

There was 1300 pages of pure transcription, I whacked off (edited away) 800 of them. The format I think is going to be two books of about 300 pages each. The first one will be about my life in San Francisco until I left it in 1984 and the next will be about the weird land of England up until Alan and I met and started working together.

[...] The book is the main thing. If you live with a champion swimmer and every day you go out to the paddling pool and try to get a little better at frog kicking… I can only get with my own language if I am isolated from the undertow of a certain culturally-valuable husband. It’s not his fault but still…"
