Realization.

Alan Moore is a genius. I just finished re-reading "Watchmen" and damn, what a story.

He is also the man who wrote "From Hell" which went on to be a fairly respectable movie from the Hughes brothers.

What I didn't realize is that he's also the man who wrote "Batman: The Killing Joke" in which the Joker paralyzes Barbara Gordon. For you folks who aren't hep to all that Batman whatnot, it's also the comic that "The Dark Knight" is loosely based around, though it's Commissioner Gordon rather than Harvey Dent who gets pushed to the limit in the long run.

Sorry, I just had to geek out a moment there.
