The Bride of Pressbutton
In British music magazine Sounds, in the issue dated 25th December 1982, there was a four page The Stars My Degradation story called The Bride of Pressbutton. This was both written and drawn by Alan Moore, under the name Curt Vile. I bought this copy on eBay on a whim, as I usually only buy them in bulk, and without knowing it was the Christmas issue. Normally the strips were half a page, meaning that this Christmas story was eight times longer than usual. So, this is my Christmas present to Alan Moore fandom worldwide: A story from 24 years ago, not seen or collected since. If you want to see more of these strips, go look at 4colorheroes's Sounds Magazine Project page on his excellent Moore for Free site.
