    Way back in the '80's, Marvel UK created a comic-strip called Night Raven. It was about a masked vigilante fighting crime in the late 1920's, and was an influence on Moore's V for Vendetta a few years later.

    The strip became text-based stories set later in time, and got increasingly weirder and more macabre, which was when Moore took over the writing. The stories were very good, but I dont believe they've been reprinted, and possibly will never get reprinted.

    I've scanned The Anaesthetic Wearing Off and The Snow Queen part 3, links bellow:

    I've uploaded them onto Photobucket, but they limit me to 800x600, so I've rotated several pages onto their sides to prevent them from being reduced too small to read. This means you either need to copy said pages into a Photoshop-type program and rotate them back, or, for the less technologically abled, turn your head.

    I'll put up the final part of The Snow Queen in a day or two, and I'll leave the pages on Photobucket until Christmas Day. If there is anyone who has parts 1&2 of The Snow Queen, please scan and post. I find the story works without the first two episodes, but I'd love to read them given the chance.

    Merry Christmas
