I know his work has been collected in trades but can anyone give me a list of what stories hes done. I havent been able to find anything on the internet. The reason im asking is because my LCS is having a big clearance sale so maybe ill be able to find some back issues. Thanks for any help.

Other than his Swamp Thing, I think that 'Alan Moore Across the DCU' trade is pretty much everything, actually. He hasn't done any runs of normal books that I can think of, other than Swamp Thing. Maybe I'm forgetting something, but I think that was it.

I was wondering what was in the "Alan Moore Across the DCU" trade??? I couldnt find anything that said what was actually in it.

Other than Saga of the Swamp Thing #20, I can't think of anything that Moore did for DC that hasn't been reprinted.

Would you consider all his Wildstorm/ABC stuff as being DC?

Normally, I prefer trades to single back issues, so I didn't get what you were after. Anyhow, in the case of the GL stories, his are the back-ups, and they're from a good run of the old series, so I would recommend picking those up.

One of the GL Corps stories was from GL (volume 2) #188 -- the classic Mogo short story that Gibbons drew. And another was from Tales of the Green Lantern Corps Annual #3. I forget where the other one is from. But all during that period, there were good issues and good back-ups by a variety of people... worth checking out.

Most of the rest of the stories are listed by the first reviewer of the amazon page: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/1401209270/sr=1-1/qid=1156205852/ref=pd_bbs_1/002-7917701-8392038?ie=UTF8&s=books ...although he doesn't mention the Vigilante and Green Arrow stories, for some reason.

Honestly, the highlights of the Alan moore DCU Volume (the new one) are Killing Joke, Whatever Happened to the Man of Tomorrow, For the Man who Has everything and Mogo Doesn't Socialize.

Thanks it would be easier to buy the trade. The back issues are expensive.
