The Portal

The Portal: 14 April 2026

The other day, our pal the photographer and filmmaker Dave Ma got in touch with some amazing shots of tQ’s John Doran when he interviewed Alan Moore, which made us realise that we really ought to do an edition of The Portal with some of our archival material on the great writer and countercultural magus. So look below for John’s interview with portraits by Ma, the late and much-missed Nick Talbot speaking to Moore about Iain Sinclair, a piece on Akira, Mark Fisher on 2001: A Space Odyssey, The Shining, Stalker, Solaris and Interstellar. There’s a Strange World of Steve Aylett, an interview with 2000AD founder Pat Mills, and from the subscriber area, Joel McIver on the 2012 film Dredd.
