    Steve Moore was a man of many accomplishments. He is certainly well-known to the Fortean Times audience—he was the magazine’s editor during its early days, spear-headed the indexing of its first hundred or so issues, edited several of its reprint volumes and anthologies, and later edited its academically-inclined sister journal Fortean Studies. He was a prolific comics writer: in 1971, he created the first UK comics fanzine Orpheus. He scribed several of the most memorable serials for 2000 AD, including 'Hollow World,' many of the long-running Future Shocks, and the more recent 'Red Fang.' He wrote for Doctor Who Weekly and other numerous titles for Marvel UK, and contributed to the now legendary anthology series Warrior. He also wrote stories for Tom Strong’s Terrific Tales, one of frequent collaborator Alan Moore’s line of America’s Best Comics. At the time of his death, he and Moore were co-writing The Moon and Serpent

    A number of other goddesses were also associated with the moon, however, only Selene was represented by the old Gr
