I found this piece here.  Anybody know why Ross painted a little Darth Vader and Cyberman in the right hand side just above Rorschach's hat?

I don't know about the Cyberman, But Moore wrote a few stories for the UK Star Wars comic. Dark Horse collected them.

Because Ross is a Fake Fan turned Fake Pro who does Fake Superhero artwork. No one really wants to see superheroes that look realistic, with every seam in their suits and realistic textures.

I've got loads of neat little Moore stories from all over the place. How about this splash page from one of his American Flagg stories

Then Alex Ross lied to us... lied, I say.
A pity, because that's my favorite of the credited Moore stories in Doctor Who. Most of them seem to be the worst sort of fan-wank and the attempt to bring super-heroes into them is just wrong on so many levels.

Gerry wrote: Looking through that, I'm not 100% convinced it's right. Star Tigers part 1 is credited to Steve Moore, but Star Tigers part 2 is credited to Alan Moore. Seeing how Star Tigers has never appeared on any Alan Moore checklist I've ever seen, I'm thinking they might have mixed up a couple of stories.
