In that intro, Moore cites the importance of “that element without which all true legends are incomplete and yet which for some reason hardly seems to exist in the world depicted in the average comic book, and that element is time....

Oscar Ads: Tim Burton Pitches ‘Unicorn Apocalypse’, Apple Name-Checks David Fincher, Grey Poupon Digs Up Lost Footage Despite the oft-repeated observation that the Oscars are the Super Bowl of movies, only the actual Super Bowl has managed to turn its commercial breaks into an event as big as the game itself.
