What do you get if you cross the singer from an indie band, an artist and a seminal writer who worships a Roman sock puppet? Obviously it’s an opera!

The creative team behind Gorillaz and the Monkey Kung Fu opera-thing – Damon Albarn and Jamie Hewlett – have recruited Comic book supremo, owner of an amazing beard, and general man of mystery Alan Moore to collaborate on their next operatic project. It should at least be very interesting.

And a million times better than Bonio’s Spider-Man musical.
