Huh? Where did you get the comic? I've never even heard of an Alan Moore story called "Hypothetical Lizard." Is it prose?

i'm not sure where or what exactly the original tale was. i just picked up a preview from my local comic store. just the first few pages without dialogue then the dialogue, setting etc. written in the standard form that the artists receive. apparently its a four part series. the first issue is advertised in the october 'previews' magazine. it looks like it will be really good.

Sounds like a spam e-mail. What's it about?

From the late '80's, and, from memory, about average for Moore (warning: I like Moore, but don't absolutely adore everything he's done, like many - really can't be bothered to go through 'Watchmen' again), and quite nicely off-kilter. My memory of reading it (I don't actually remember much of the story, so much as the feeling/experience of it), was something akin to 'Metabarons' in a 'looks bad from the outside, but from their mentality, all is well' way, except that all is not well.
Girl having part of her face preserved in porcelain, by her mother. The phrase 'House without Clocks'. Fairly short, which is something I admit, I haven't really seen from Moore.
You can find it online (at least, I have), a few places (for which I haven't links), or pull it from Limewire.
