Sergeant Kemlo Caesar, a sentient Doberman who stands upright with an exo-skeleton, assigns her to work with experienced hand Smaxx, an ebon giant with a chip on his shoulder. The Story: New recruit Robyn “Toybox” Slinger arrives fresh from the academy for her first day on the Neopolis police squad. The art team of Gene Ha and Zander Cannon (not differentiated any more specifically in their art duties in the credits they're just listed as a pair) loaded each super-detailed page with Easter Eggs from the worlds of geekdom, making for a viewing experience that rewards a snail’s pace to savor each line and panel.Ĭover Tag: The Power, the Training, the Badge, Are They Enough For Her First Day on the Job? Top Ten was a light-hearted effort, focusing on relationships among police officers in a world full of super-powered “science heroes” and gods. Chagrined but determined, Moore pressed forward with his WildStorm imprint, the modestly titled “America’s Best Comics,” with projects including The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen and Tom Strong. Moore had been working at Image Comics with Rob Liefeld, then at Liefeld’s splinter company Awesome Comics, but Liefeld eventually became another entry on the lengthy roster of PAMDLWW (People Alan Moore doesn’t like working with.) Moore jumped ship to work with Image co-founder Jim Lee at WildStorm comics, but the sale of WildStorm to DC Comics put Moore back in contact with another group of PAMDLWW.

Let’s look at what may be one of Alan Moore’s more “normal” efforts: the sci-fi police procedural series Top Ten (1999-2000).
