Alan Moore Launches Electricomics Digital Comics App



Already known for revolutionising the comic book industry in the 1980s, Moore is pushing boundaries again with Electricomics - an app that is both a comic book and an easy-to-use open source toolkit. Being open source and free, the app has wide potential not just for industry professionals, but also businesses, arts organisations and of course comic fans and creators everywhere.

"Personally, I can't wait," said Moore. "With Electricomics, we are hoping to address the possibilities of comic strips in this exciting new medium, in a way that they have never been addressed before.

"Rather than simply transferring comic narrative from the page to the screen, we intend to craft stories expressly devised to test the storytelling limits of this unprecedented technology. To this end we are assembling teams of the most cutting edge creators in the industry and then allowing them input into the technical processes in order to create a new capacity for telling comic book stories.

"It will then be made freely available to all of the exciting emergent talent that is no doubt out there, just waiting to be given access to the technical toolkit that will enable them to create the comics of the future."
 
Hope Moore ends up writing one of the comics for this app. If there's anyone who has pushed the envelope in terms of experimenting with the comic book medium (and geniusly so), it's Moore. Would be a lot of fun to see him do so with this app.

He'll be writing a Nemo comic.
