They still need refinement, but the first pass annotations of all three volumes of The Ballad of Halo Jones are now posted. Jones is full of clever references inserted by Ian Gibson and Alan Moore.
In addition to panel by panel annotations for Book One, Two, and Three, there are also pages on unfinished volumes, and publication history. Find all the pages via this site’s Annotations Index page.

The Ballad of Halo Jones, by Alan Moore and Ian Gibson, has been around since the mid-1980s. Until now, it hadn’t been subjected to the nit-picking scrutiny of internet annotators.
