>According to Moore, he ran into John years after he'd stopped writing him, and the wisecracking mage whispered 13 words to him: “I'll tell you the ultimate secret of magic. Any c**t could do it.”

I mean Morrison thinks so, right?
I've heard this stuff before, and thought about just writing Constantine fanfics every day to see if he shows up, but that would never work... Right?
Morrison met Superman at a convention.
Because Moore is a druggie and druggies are cool, while CWC is a moron that fricked his own mother.
>CWC is a moron that fricked his own mother
This never happened. Imagine believing lies like this and then spreading them, despicable.
Oh, this concept goes back a hundred years. Leslie Charteris wrote a story where he met the Saint. Isaac Asimov wrote a story where his favorite hard-boiled detective shows up in the flesh, complete with cliches. It's been done lots of times. Whether it could really happen, though...Absolutely not. If you think you've met a fictional character come to life, get checked for schizophrenia.
isnt this essentially a tulpa? even more able to become real because so many people including the creator give it energy
Or it's actually John Constantine who exists somewhere in the multiverse and he decided to visit the universe where he is a semi-popular fictional character.
Well, yeah, But Tulpas aren't real, either. They're like Leprechauns or Santa's reindeer.
Well, if the multiverse is real there's statistically a chance they do exist somewhere.
How is it Moore got away with this shit and Chris didn't?
Because Moore looks like a evil wizard and im not going to put it to the test if he actually could shoot lightning.
Someone said in another thread that CWC is just a failed Moore/ Morrison.
seY!
This proves Dini is the one true mage in comicdom. *kneels
>Marries his own waifu
Name a greater fate than this
If Alan Moore is a mage how could DC screw him over, not once but twice?
That's like, how do fortune tellers get busted by the police for fraud? Why did witches allow themselves to be burned at the stake? Why don't psychics make millions at the race track? Because none of it actually works.
They hired Morrison to counter his spells
Why do you think DC movies keep bombing? The whole company is cursed to hell and back, it just takes time to dismantle something as big as that. Moore will have the last laugh from Keter.
Brian Azzarello saw John Constantine in England once and remarked about how we wouldn't wanna be friends with a man like that.
I wish Azz was a friend of JC.
Daily reminder this short story is technically fanfiction since they don't own the rights of the character, Moore made up a fanfiction about him meeting constantine.
something something string theory
Alan Moore is not the only one who claimed to have met him.

>Writers who had their run on the Hellblazer series have also admitted meeting the character in real life. A rumour has persisted for many years that the Liverpool occult writer Tom Slemen served as a model for Constantine. Slemen has always denied this. Original Hellblazer writer Jamie Delano also claims to have encountered Constantine, during his run on the character, outside the British Museum.[95][96] Peter Milligan saw Constantine at a party around 2009 and rushed after him, only to find he'd disappeared. Brian Azzarello once saw him in a Chicago bar but avoided him, saying that "the thing about John is, the last thing you'd want to be is his friend."[8]
Yeah. I'm starting to think Constantine is real. He probably visits this universe because he's a fictional character here.
What are the deeper cosmic implications of this? Is every conceivable nightmare and hellscape actually real in some disparate universe from ours?
I don't think so. If that was true there would be more characters than Constatine here.
The multiverse is only a wild idea, not even a theory. There is zero evidence of other realities existing, and there is no way to contact or observe them. It's like wondering if that daydream you had while staring out the window was real.
Moore didn't "ran" into Constantine out of the blue, it's very complicated so bear this bullshit with me:
The Golden dawn had this ritual were they worshipped a god until they felt they had received that god's blessing, when they archived that they got rid of everything related to that god and moved to worship another. After Crowley died the dude that took over decided to add the god's of lovecraft's cthulu mythos to this ritual, and the thing is that zeus and thor are fictional then what difference does it make to worship cthulu?
Moore has extended this ritual with his own characters and other comic book characters, according to the book where I read this (the slenderman mythos by ncick radfern) Moore has also run across bugs bunny and superman, not just john constantine.
I'm off to bed, I hope we can talk more about this tomorrow.
I remember I had an idea for a horror romance comic with Lovecraftian overtones.
It was about a guy who fell in love with a girl who joins a cult-like church (but legally cannot be called a cult in fear of lawsuits). A group of anonymous online activists from an anime image board start to protest this church. The church secretly has lore about an ancient god of fear that troubles humanity. I figured it was fitting given the Bush War On Terror era. While protesting this church, the anonymous supposed hackers on steroids unknowingly summon a green chaos god that aides them while also spreading chaos into the world. It kinda fits the anarchist attitudes and imagery of the image board too.
I had no idea how much of that shit was going to really happen. It was like I was communing with cosmic forces seeing things to come. Or maybe I just have a keen subconscious sense of observation for trends in society. Naw. Let's go with cosmic entities communicating with me.
Also weird that a couple personal things I invented happening with certain characters happened IRL to some people I based characters on.
Of course I never got this published or even written scripts down fully, so no one will ever believe this.
Obviously this is just people like Moore and Morrison being drug addicts, but it's still pretty interesting. I know it has been done before, but I do think it's something that would make for an interesting story concept.
Due to recent events, it's save to say Thawne exists and is trying to sabotage anything Flash related
Will we meet our waifus in the afterlife?
>had crush on rocket raccoon long ago
>actually read his comics
>entire multi-issue series about what a shit boyfriend he is
>dumbest catchphrase imaginable
>either doing super low-level bullshit because it’s funny, or acting like a full on cartoon character because we want the Deadpool audience
I hope not. Fricker would shoot me and steal my shit.
Maybe you would just keep respawning until he gets bored of killing you? At which point he might be open to you changing him? You can fix him anon.
>Maybe you would just keep respawning until he gets bored of killing you?
Do I get mental resilience too? Because there would definitely be a funny montage of all the ways he’d kill me, and eventually I might get sick of it.
>At which point he might be open to you changing him? You can fix him anon.
Have you read any of his solo comics?
>Do I get mental resilience too?
You’d probably get used to it over time.
>Have you read the comics?
Nah, don’t really know much about him. But you’ll have an eternity together to figure out how to make him change!
They are trying to get away from you, so no.
