In Damon Lindelof's defense? He's been saying all along that he had no intention of coming back to craft a second season of HBO's Emmy Award-winning series Watchmen– but that didn't mean the series' universe shouldn't continue to be explored.

Consider what viewers confront in the bold and original first episode: a pastiche of a silent film about a black sheriff, an intense re-enactment of the 1921 Tulsa Race Riots, an all-black performance of Rodgers and Hammerstein’s Oklahoma, a vision of a future society where Robert Redford is president, and the lynching of a white[...]
Now that HBO's wonderfully authorized pseudo-sequel to [REDACTED] and Dave Gibbons' celebrated comic book series Watchmen has been unveiled to the world – it seems the world's liking what they're seeing so far from Damon Lindelof's "remix". Even die-hard Watchmen purists appear to be slowly coming around – and they should. Bleeding Cool didn't exactly […]
