How is he a Rasputin Impersonator but only a Mall Santa? Seems you'd be a Santa Impersonator employed at malls?

What venues hire Rasputin Impersonators? I imagine Escape Rooms would probably be in the market, especially with those Wizard qualifications.

I have exactly one group of friends for whom I would hire Alan Moore as a Rasputin Impersonator but it would be one hell of a party, before we threw him in the pool.

How does one justify "wizard"?

His house is described as "something like an occult bookshop under permanent renovation, with records, videos, magical artefacts and comic-book figurines strewn among shelves of mystical tomes and piles of paper. The bathroom, with blue-and-gold décor and a generous sunken tub, is palatial; the rest of the house has possibly never seen a vacuum cleaner."

Maybe he impersonates writers, wizards, mall Santas, and Rasputin?

This, I find very interesting, but I don't subscribe, so please just take this as an explanation.
Alan's brand of magic has to do with the human mind and how it manipulates the universe.
So if you're able to get a large group of people thinking the same thing about an idea, you can manifest it.
His comics are his spells.

Jerusalem sucked and was terrible.
