Yes, Watchmen was a slow boil by design, but Doomsday Clock doesn't have enough gas in the tank to pull that off. But, we're being positive here, and we're not going to talk about how Doomsday Clock has yet to deliver any meaningful satire of real-world political structures no matter how many times that fact struck[...]

HBO programming president Casey Bloys updated the media on two very different, polarizing projects during their Television Critics Association's (TCA) executive session on Wednesday: Damon Lindelof's authorized adaptation "remix" of Alan Moore and Dave Gibbons' 1986 limited comic book series Watchmen; and alternate history fiction series Confederate, from Game Of Thrones creators David Benioff and D.B[...]

Mixing the regular DCU with Watchmen characters is an interesting idea, but where do you go from there? Making stylistic and narrative references to the Watchmen story itself is not enough to convince me this tale is worthwhile.

There's no way to talk about Doomsday Clock without referring to Watchmen like I'm a Pokemon, and my name is "Watchmen."
