V FOR VENDETTA

A frightening and powerful tale of the loss of freedom and identity in a chillingly believable totalitarian world in which England has given itself over to fascism, this groundbreaking story captures both the suffocating nature of life in an authoritarian police state and the redemptive power of the human spirit that rebels against it. V for Vendetta stands as one of the highest achievements in the comics medium, and is a defining work for creators Alan Moore and David Lloyd. Crafted with sterling clarity and intelligence, this unflinching account of oppression and resistance is unequaled in its depth of characterization and verisimilitude"--Provided by publisher.
