From the subterranean depths of comics' most innovative mind comes a supremely deranged duo. Alan Moore (Watchmen, Promethea) and Alan Davis (Captain Britain, X-Men) are proud (and should be ashamed) to present D.R. & Quinch! College students D.R. & Quinch gleefully provide irredeemably poor role-modelling for today's youth in wildly offensive tales of alien slime wars, psychotic girlfriends and warped war veterans, complete with tips on death, extremely painful death and the art of total destruction. This volatile mix of malicious mayhem and deeply dark humour is now available in this gorgeous collector's edition that's way too good for them! Totally intense, man!

This review is from: The Complete DR and Quinch (2000 AD Collectors Edition) (Hardcover)
I'm bemused by the tag suggestion of 'erotica' while writing this review. I suspect that someone is taking the bearded wizard of Northampton a little too seriously.
Back before Dark Horse, when Marvel was still reeling from the campiness of the 1970s and the UK was really getting into Eagle, we had 2000AD. It was a heady time in the 1980s, the teenagers had their punk and we skirted the shallows with a publication that included the relative ultraviolence of Dredd, Slaine and Rogue Trooper balanced against the early crushes of Venus Bluegenes, Purity Brown and <sigh>...Cassandra Anderson. There were thinly veiled political messages, callbacks to popular songs and we loved it. DR and Quinch are pretty much the pinnacle of 2000ADs output, even though they represent a very small part of it. The titular aliens are fun-loving hedonists with access to the best weaponry, vehicles and technology that any self-respecting star-spanning pan-species empire can produce, and in this short series of stories attempt to express themselves as only a couple of borderline psychopaths can. It's a must for any Moore completest, although the comic strips themselves remain uncolored and pretty much the same way as originally published.
