The 68-year-old added that he accepts accountability for his own role in creating superheroes that appealed to adults.
“I didn’t really think that superheroes were adult fare,” Moore explained.

Moore continued, “I tend to think that, no, comics hadn’t grown up.
There were a few titles that were more adult than people were used to.
But the majority of comics titles were pretty much the same as they’d ever been.
It wasn’t comics growing up.
I think it was more comics meeting the emotional age of the audience coming the other way.”
“I don’t watch any of them,” he added.
For now, he’s focusing on his firstcollection of short storiesIlluminations,which debuts on Tuesday.
“I’m definitely done with comics,” he said.
