The article analyses a comic book by Alan Moore and Melinda Gebbie in the context of numerous interviews given by the British author which relate to this book and also to the issues such as: comic book culture, Victorian culture, sexuality and its representations in various periods. Moore and Gebbie’s work is analysed mostly in three facets: 1. various forms of stories about loss and the state of losing depicted in the book (and signalised by one of the meanings of the title "Lost Girls"), and also about the narration of an attempt at self-recovery; 2. intertextual and graphic reference to the second half of the 19th century (related to literature, fine arts, and cultural phenomena); 3. the manner in which the comic book refers to pornography and meaning that Alan Moore ascribes to the term 'pornography'. All these facets combine into a narration about the ending of the 19th century, when the I World War becomes the moment of the loss of Imagination and of the transfer of culture under the power of Thanatos.
