Watchmen

Watchmen series creator Damon Lindelof's been making the most of the social distancing/self-quarantining time we're finding ourselves in. First, there was the "Washmen" video reunited a large chunk of the cast to push everyone into safer hand-washing practices (more on that in a moment). Now, the creator of HBO's pseudo-sequel/"remix" of Dave Gibbons/ Alan Moore's classic comic […]

Just because it's been a few months since we last visited HBO and Damon Lindelof's pseudo-sequel/"remix" of Dave Gibbons/ He-Who-Doesn't-Want-To-Be-Named's classic comic book series Watchmen doesn't mean the cast has stopped thinking about us.

Okay, time for some light coronavirus reading. Twilight of the Superheroes was a series proposal for DC Comics by Alan Moore, written around 1985 and 1986. Differences between Moore and DC, principally over the rights to Watchmen and V For Vendetta, saw him withdraw from the project. It was never published, though aspects have appeared […]

The Hunt is sort of a box office disappointment– barely making the giant waves some expected after its free publicity over its controversial violent premise. But that's likely as much to do with the social distancing we're all practicing to slow the spread of coronavirus as it is the film itself. While the film is […]

CBS' The Silence of the Lambs sequel series pilot Clarice has started rounding out the supporting cast for Rebecca Breeds' (Home and Away, Pretty Little Liars) FBI Agent Starling.

On the floor of C2E2, Graphitti Designs are selling special foil-covered versions of next week's Flash #750 a week early – and for $25. Well, I've just paid a Bleeding Cool reporter that very sum and to pick up a copy. We'd previously said that the story within by Scott Lobdell and Brett Booth – […]

So we're starting a little "unofficial" thing we're calling the "Watchmen Dept. of Speculation" to keep track of all the hints, rumors, and allegations being throw around about a second season of Damon Lindelof's pseudo-sequel/"remix" of Dave Gibbons/ He-Who-Doesn't-Want-To-Be-Named's classic comic book series. Following up on yesterday's post covering Regina King's thoughts on a second-season […]

Damon Lindelof's sequel-"remix" of classic Dave Gibbons/ He-Who-Doesn't-Want-To-Be-Named's Watchmen ended 2019 and started 2020 with a ton of praise (even topping our The Bleeding Cool TV Top 10 Best of 2019 list) – and a ton of speculation on if there will be a second season… or if there should even be one.

I wonder if Geoff Johns looks at the DC Comics' Free Comic Book Day edition, Generation Zero solicitations and wonders what Pandora's box he opened with the unauthorised sequel to Watchmen, Doomsday Clock. Here's the solicitation for the comic by Scott Lobdell and Brett Booth that follows their Flash Forward series. In order to save […]
