Crossed +100 takes Alan Moore into horror comics with a story set a century after the Crossed pandemic. Rather than focusing on immediate survival, Moore explores how humanity might rebuild civilization while the infected still pose a threat.
Moore created a future culture with evolved language and customs, showing his characteristic world-building even in someone else’s franchise. The story follows archivists trying to preserve knowledge of the pre-outbreak world.
The series demonstrates Moore’s ability to bring depth to any genre, transforming an extreme horror franchise into a meditation on civilization, memory, and survival. It’s not for readers uncomfortable with the Crossed universe’s graphic content, but it offers substance beyond shock value.
