While it would be easy for Damon Lindelof to get lost in the euphoria that comes with his "remix" pseudo-sequel to comic book classic Watchmen earning 26 Emmy nominations (including for Outstanding Drama Series and acting noms for Regina King, Jeremy Irons, Yahya Abdul-Mateen II, Jovan Adepo, Louis Gossett Jr., and Jean Smart), he's always made it[...]

Studios lot; FunVerse, featuring access to digital comics and merchandise; and the DC Kids FanDome, a kid-safe, interactive environment.

While Damon Lindelof has received much of the upfront attention (and deservedly so) for the success of his "remix" pseudo-sequel to The-Writer-Who-Must-Not-Be-Named, David Gibbons, and John Higgins' comic book classic Watchmen, he's never missed an opportunity to give much of the credit to his writers' room: Cord Jefferson, Stacy Osei-Kuffour, Christal Henry, Lila Byock, Carly Wray,[...]

It is sensational, is a remarkable achievement in television and, yes because this is Bleeding Cool, I am describing it as TV's first Watchmen Which for some may see as inappropriate, given that Watchmen is a just superhero comic and I May Destroy You is a drama about rape and its consequences And, as BC[...]

In the unauthorised sequel to Watchmen, Doomsday Clock by Geoff Johns and Gary Frank, Rorschach returned – but not the original, who had been killed in Watchmen #12 by Dr Manhattan Instead, this was Reggie Long, son of Rorschach's prison psychiatrist, who had taken on the role, the mask and the mission. Tom King and Jorge[...]

It feels like Damon Lindelof's Watchmen is as much in the pop culture conversations of Summer 2020 as it was when it first debuted in October 2019 Much of that has to do with the way the series eerily reflected our society six months before we would see it play out for ourselves in real life[...]

The final product? Well, we're not here to talk about that.

Tom King likes Watchmen But then, don't we all?
