'''Alan Moore''' (born [[18 November (people)|18 November]] [[1953 (people)|1953]]<ref> | '''Alan Moore''' (born [[18 November (people)|18 November]] [[1953 (people)|1953]]<ref>[https://www.famousbirthdays.com/people/alan-moore.html Famous Birthdays]</ref>) was the writer of a number of [[DWM backup comic stories|backup features]] for ''[[Doctor Who Magazine]]'' during the earlier phase of his career. He left the title alongside fellow writer [[Steve Moore]] (no relation), after Steve Moore heard from group editor [[Paul Neary]] that DWM editor [[Alan McKenzie]] was taking one of his strips without his knowledge. (McKenzie has denied ever doing so.) Steve Moore has said this was "a wonderful gesture of support that was remarkable for someone at that early a stage in their career". <ref>[http://www.alteredvistas.co.uk/html/steve_moore_abslom_daak_interv.html Abslom Daak interview with Steve Moore]</ref> | ||
