Neil Gaiman vs Alan Moore

Have to stick by Neil, Sandman was my first comic.

Alan Moore

Both are good.

Neil

Gaiman is more consistently good to me.

Moore. Greatest CB writer of all time. Gaiman is good but lacks Moore's versatlity. Seriously Moore can write any damn comic and its going to be awesome

I like both, but I prefer Moore just a little bit more.

Moore is very good, but Neil is far more deep.

Too close to call.

Neil.

American Gods is orgasmic... but maybe that's just because it has so many interesting ideas. Like when Wednesday asks what gets a plane off the ground? Aerodynamics and physics or the hundreds of thousands of people who believe that it'll fly?

Oh yeah, Neil. Such awesome existential concepts introduced in his books.

Gaiman but then he's my favorite novel writer of all time.

Seeing as those two (and Morrison) are the only writers from which I've read a comic book, it's kinda hard to chose, but I'll probably go Neil Gaiman because The Sandman it's a masterpiece.

Alan Moore. Both are geniuses though.

Moore for me

Ignore this guy he had only read 2 Moore comics and skimmed though the second one.

Moore is his answer now that he actually read his work.

Both are two of the best but I personally like Neil more, mostly because of The Sandman.

I think I like Alan more (wink) when he’s at his best but Neil is a lot more consistent with his writing and I’ve read a lot of his novels recently.

So I’ll say Mister Neil.

Both are awesome though.

Both are majestic. Sandman is my all time favorite so Neil gets a nod there, but Moore's sheer volume and quality are hard for anyone to match. He's probably the greatest of all time.

It's a very hard pick, as both writers are frankly the cream of the crop in terms of writing quality. I'll have to go with Moore if only because I'm more familiar with his work and style.

I think both are among the best writers alive today. Not just the best comic book writers, I'm talking about writers in general.

Both are great, but I would have to say, Gaiman. because imo he doesn't rely on disturbing the reader quite so heavily. Moore's Swamp Thing was fantastic that's really his best work imo, 1963 was great fun, but sometimes Moore's comics are either trying to do too much or they're not saying anything meaningful at all.

I think Gaiman better understands the limitations and possibilities of comics and writes within those boundaries. he can write a story which is overtly simple but subtly brilliant.

but again both are great.

Probably Moore. While I love Whatever Happened to the Caped Crusader?, V for Vendetta is a masterpiece.

Moore. Not sure I was really that much invested in Sandman despite reading most of his books or his audiobooks. But I still consider him one of the greats. My sister isn't really that much into comics but I persuade her to read his comicbooks as well as his novels like American Gods and Ocean At The End Of The Tunnel so there is that.

It’s close but watchmen gets Alan Moore the victory
