Big numbers 1 & 2 RARE Alan Moore Bill Sienkiewicz comic books

First printing

This is an unfinished graphic novel, of which only two of the planned twelve issues were published (by short-lived imprint Mad Love). The series was picked up by Kevin Eastman's Tundra Publishing, but the completed third issue did not print, and the remaining issues, whose artwork was to be handled by Sienkiewicz's assistant Al Columbia, were never finished. The work marks a move, on Moore's part, away from genre fiction, in the wake of the success of "Watchmen". Moore weaves mathematics into a narrative of socioeconomic changes wrought by an American corporation's building of a shopping mall in a small, traditional English town, and the effects of the economic policies of the Margaret Thatcher administration in the 1980s.
