Such as this scene from Watchmen #3, as Dr Manhattan is hemmed into the crowd by the intrusive media…

Something similar happens to Firestorm in Doomsday Clock #8. Though in Moscow rather than the USA, a similar hemming in occurs… as Leave Me Alone becomes Let Go Of Me…

But it has a similar effect on the media.

Could Dr Manhattan be playing out the more significant moments in his life but getting others to do it for him? Almost as if he were the puppet master?
