Latest Comic Guest Announcement - Leah Moore

Appearing: Saturday

Writer: Damsels; 2000 AD; Albion; Wild Girl

Better known for her collaborations with her husband John Reppion, Leah Moore began her professional career writing solo, contributing stories to issues of a couple of series released by America's Best Comics, a DC/WilDstorm imprint set up especially to publish titles created by her legendary comics writing father, Alan. Her professional relationship with Reppion kicked off in 2005, when they collaborated on the six-issue Wild Girl for WildStorm.

Moore and Reppion's second project was 2005's Albion, a DC/WildStorm six-parter on which they collaborated with Moore senior. Then, after brief detour to contribute to The Dark Horse Book of Monsters and to first issue of Th3rd World Studios' Space Doubles anthology, they authored three four-parters – Witchblade: Shades of Grey for Image/Top Cow and Dynamite's Raise the Dead in 2007 and The Darkness vs Eva: Daughter of Dracula the following year.

With contributions to a variety of anthologies for various publishers along the way, in 2009 the duo authored IDW's Doctor Who: The Whispering Gallery one-shot and the five-issue Sherlock Holmes for Dynamite. More work for Dynamite followed as they established a reputation for Victorian--themed stories. First came two 2009 five-issue adaptations – The Complete Dracula and The Complete Alice in Wonderland – which were followed in 2010 by a four-part Raise the Dead sequel (co-written with Mike Raicht).

Two years after that they embarked Damsels. Their first ongoing series, it was set in the world of fairy tales and featured the couple's interpretations of such characters as Rapunzel, Sleeping Beauty and the Little Mermaid. While continuing to contribute to anthologies, they also authored The Liverpool Demon, another Sherlock Holmes five-parter in 2012. They followed Damsels (which ended in 2014 after 13 issues and one one-shot) with their first work for 2000 AD. Launched in 2014, Black Shuck's first serial ran to nine episodes.
