To tie in with the new movie, DC have released a replica of V's mask.
"Set in the futuristic landscape of totalitarian Britain, V FOR VENDETTA tells the story of a mysterious revolutionary who finds an unlikely ally in a mild-mannered young woman. The screenplay by Andy Wachowski and Larry Wachowski is based on the acclaimed graphic novel by Alan Moore (WATCHMEN, From Hell) and David Lloyd. Originally published by DC Comics as a 10 part series in 1988, V FOR VENDETTA has been praised for its vision, potency and eloquence. Moore is widely considered to be one of the finest comics writers of all time, and has been credited with single-handedly expanding the potential of the comic book medium with his work. This limited edition, hand-painted cold-cast porcelain replica measures approximately 10.5" high x 6.5" wide x 7" deep and is displayed on a sculpted base. This replica was constructed from a mold of the actual movie prop, includes a full-color Certificate of Authenticity, and is packaged in an elegant black gift box with foil stamping. Limited edition of 500."
Yours for only $195.00

Any bets as to whether any money from this will reach Moore & Lloyd? Echoes of the classy scam DC pulled with the Watchmen watches...
well none of it'll reach moore whatever
Does it vibrate?
Having seen the mess that was the last Moore Adaptaion From Hell and having seen the Matrix Trilogy , I think the ad should read like this
"The Screenplay is a butchery of the acclaimed graphic novel by Alan Moore, Originally published in Failed Magazine Warrior before being reprinted as a 10 part series in 1988 by DC,Moore is credited with single handedly expanding the the potential of the Comic Book Medium with his work and then watched in Horror as Hollywood shrunk it back down (Please see Hellblazer, From Hell, Swamp Thing)This Limited edition, hand painted by someone on minimum wage measures 10.5"x6.5" and is displayed on a sculpted base, this replica was constructed from a mold of the actual movie prop, a plastic mask costing somewhere close to a fiver , includes a certificate of authenticity and is a packaged in an elegant black box with foil stamping , this cheap piece of tat is limited to 500 because we realised it makes the franklin mint Star Trek plates look classy but will still cost you $195 cause we got a make a buck out of this celluloid disaster somehow.
