Quote: ROY BATTY said: I read V at the time of release and enjoyed it, but on subsequent re-readings, I feel it has dated quite badly!
Agreed. Vendetta was written for UK at the time when Moore was feeling especially disassociated with the nation. Reading the introduction to V in the front of the TPB was honestly all I needed to get a feel for the theme of the book (as I was quite young when it was all happening).
Is the book dated? Yes. Will that stop the Wacko-skis from fucking it up (ala Morrie's Invisibles)? No.
