Alan Moore is indeed THE best. Some of his best works:
- Watchmen (is being translated to the big screen)
- Top Ten
- From Hell
- League of Extraordinary Gentlemen
- V for Vendetta (is also being translated to the big screen)
- The Killing Joke
Most writers can't even write ONE masterpiece.

It was "homage"
It was a little bit of humour aimed at how stupid but at the same time fun the golden age was
