Watchmen Archives

Well, at the end of Watchmen, he did say he was going to go off and make some human life of his own, didn't he? #gallery-1 { margin: auto; } #gallery-1 .gallery-item { float: left; margin-top: 10px; text-align: center; width: 50%; } #gallery-1 img { border: 2px solid #cfcfcf; } #gallery-1 .gallery-caption { margin-left: 0; } /* see gallery_shortcode() in wp-includes/media.php */   In Before Watchmen: Doctor Manhattan, we see him make a start. Say, could[...]

I've been calling The Vision by Tom King and Gabriel Hernandez Walta (and now Michael Walsh) with Jordie Bellaire, Marvel's Watchmen. With today's issue I'm hardly going to stop. If Marvel play it right, treat it right, package it right, The Vision #1-#12 should be a perennial seller, both a critical and commercial hit[...]

I remember at one point someone at DC Comics called up someone at Dynamite Entertainment, over their solicitation of a Watchmen toaster, that burned the pattern of Rorschach's face into each slice of bread, saying "Really?" It was pointed out that this was already a Warners product that Dynamite was simply distributing into the comic[...]

In Watchmen, Dr Manhattan is charged – falsely it later transpires – with giving cancer to his nearest and dearest. It's something that happens to Spider-Man in the alternate future set Spider-Man: Reign by Kaare Andrews. These are considered bad things In the parody Saturday Morning Watchmen, it's a joke that Dr Manhattan "can give you cancer"[...]

So there is a Justice League Tarot card set by Sara Richard in comic book stores today (and from Amazon after Christmas) Featuring a bunch of characters

We've known for a little while that Jeffrey Dean Morgan (Supernatural, Watchmen) had been cast to play Negan in the second half of the current The Walking Dead season, but with the mid-season finale AMC showed a prologue to the second half that will kick off in February and we get the first name drop[...]

This is how Dave Gibbons did it in Watchmen. This is how Zack Snyder did it in the movie. And this is how Olivia Mears did it on Etsy. In Swipe File we present two or more images that resemble each other to some degree They may be homages, parodies, ironic appropriations, coincidences or works of the lightbox[...]

(Twitter @lianaleslie) In her spare time over the course of the past year, she's taken one of the most information dense comics ever created, Alan Moore and Dave Gibbons' Watchmen, and described the art of every single aspect of the comic in text, so that blind fans can have text-to-speech programs read it aloud for[...]

Kieron Gillen, writer of The Wicked + The Darth Vader (or someting like that) once did a talk-thing about Alan Moore and Dave Gibbons' Watchmen. A couple of years ago, a good friend of mine asked what the big deal was about Watchmen That, via a lot of detours, led me to this speech where I[...]

An Amazon Glitchwatchmen? Okay, so this is peculiar A copy of the complete Watchmen collection is on Amazon Kindle for free, USA only.

It was with great happiness I signed up for 'An Evening with Dave Gibbons', put together by IDW Publishing to promote their Artifact Edition of Watchmen Even at $500 a pop, I drooled at the thought of having dinner and conversation with one of my all-time favourite comicbook creators, a bona fide industry master to[...]

But the director has built his name doing some pretty epic looking adaptations over the years like Watchmen, Suckerpunch, The 300 and Man of Steel Through those films he has created his own style of storytelling The folks at Cinema Sins decided to show us how we can make our own Zack Snyder film in[...]

Absolutely stunning, from beginning to end. Focussing on the Charlton Heroes of the DC Multiverse, it continues to tell a metafictional tale and, as expected, is heavy reminiscent of Watchmen With some rather pointed remarks, say with Nite Owl and Rorschach Blue Beetle and The Question. But one of my favourite aspects of Watchmen was something you[...]

Based on sales to the North American direct market of comic books by Diamond Comic Distributors, these are the best selling graphic novels or comic collections  in August 2014. The Marvel OGN Thanos: Infinity Revelation by Jim Starlin  leads the pack, but it's worth noticing that Saga has three collections in the Top Ten, and with[...]

To date I can think of only two distinctly comedic sequences in Snyder films: the montage in the middle of Dawn of the Dead and the sex scene in Watchmen, although I think the jury's still out on how much that scene's supposed to be comedy and how much it's supposed to be titillating. Of course,[...]

From Watchmen… And from the film [youtube]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B3lsJmwNO40[/youtube] And from today's Earth 2…   And furtehr reading, including a rather big last page spoiler…We see Val-Zod, the Kryptonian living on Earth, trying to lie up to the legacy of the now-dead Superman, despite being less exposed to the Sun's rays, exposing what he's had on under that hoodie all the time[...]

I read Watchmen while I was at the conference, and Sandman: The Dream Hunters on the plane home I spent the next year reading everything by Alan Moore and Neil Gaiman I could get my hands on, then Warren Ellis, and plenty of Grant Morrison, and just kept pulling threads that led me in new[...]

Already given a premium editorial freedom in terms of the grim content of his Spider-Man issues, Todd McFarlane's Spawn wasn't hugely different, but did contain a lurid and pitch-black aesthetic that also owed a bit to Frank Miller and Watchmen While I like to think I was smart enough to avoid some trends, like the[...]

Remember a certain opening scene with Rorschach in Watchmen? There you go… In Swipe File we present two or more images that resemble each other to some degree They may be homages, parodies, ironic appropriations, coincidences or works of the lightbox We trust you, the reader, to make that judgment yourself?

It wasn't like, "No, no, I didn't even write Watchmen", or whatever He was very, very good about it Straight away he just said, "It's your book Don't feel that I'm imposing on you You can do whatever you want" There are a couple of things You can tell where they are in the book[...]
