MTV Geek has been given the first four Before Watchmen solicitations by DC Comics. And while we've already seen all the covers and creators, the text brings much to chew over. Including these quotes for each title and the artists of the variant covers… including Jim Lee drawing a cover for each one.

Oh and each comic wll be $3.99. It's worth remembering however that the original Watchmen used every page of the 32 page comics to tell their story, including the four pages of the cover. It is possible Before Watchmen may do the same.

There will also be $4.99 Combo editions, including a code to download a digital version.

Minutemen: "Little did we know that the poor boy would lead to the end of us all."

Silk Spectre: "Oh sweetie, you're too young to hate. Wait until you're older and the world gives you a good reason. Trust me, it won't let you down."

Comedian: "I'm a funny guy…"

Nite Owl: "The hero known to the public only as Nite Owl announced his retirement today."
