1963 is an American six-issue comic book limited series written by Alan Moore in 1993, with art by his frequent collaborators Steve Bissette, John Totleben, and Rick Veitch. Dave Gibbons, Don Simpson, and Jim Valentino also contributed art. Image Comics published the series. The six issues are an homage to the Silver Age of American comics (in particular, the early Marvel Comics), and feature spoof advertisements on the rear covers. "The Fury", a character who is somewhat analogous to Spider-Man, is hired to help protect the transport of a very large and mysterious crate, assisting the US Government agency "L.A.S.E.R.", ( analogous to S.H.I.E.L.D. from Marvel), directed by the female character "Commander Solo".
