Balancing up the Before Watchmen publicity, here's an image of Fashion Beast, a 10 issue series out in September that adapts a screenplay Alan Moore wrote with Malcolm McLaren in 1985 (the same hot period in which Moore produced V for Vendetta, Watchmen, Swamp Thing and Miracleman).  Published by Avatar it's adapted by writer Anthony Johnston and illustrator Facudo Percio. Here's the lowdown from Avatar (see here): 
Fashion Beast introduces young Doll Seguin, a spirited and 
sassy coat-checker working at a trendy nightclub.  While the world 
outside fears an oncoming nuclear war, Doll escapes into the carefree 
lifestyle of music and decadence, a fantasy inspired by the fashion 
designs of the mysterious Celestine.  Catching the deformed recluse’s 
eye, Doll is drawn helplessly into a sordid tale of tragic lies, false 
identities, fear, and violence.
