Watchmen Archives

From Watchmen pride and AEW appreciation to The Walking Dead stepping up and our growing NBA fascination, there's a ton of TV stuff for us to dissect this week and that doesn't even cover half of it HBO Max, Batwoman, Drew Brees, Nickelodeon, Glee, and Looney Tunes Cartoons are also in the mix, so let's[...]

We've made no bones about the fact that we have a huge ton of respect for Watchmen series creator Damon Lindelof, starting back during the Lost days As much as we obsess over whether or not he'll be returning to the universe of his pseudo-sequel to Alan Moore, David Gibbons, and John Higgins' comic book classic, we[...]

Currently streaming on HBO Max and set to hit Blu-ray and DVD on June 2, Watchmen offered the fine folks at SYFY Wire an exclusive clip from a behind-the-scenes featurette focusing on two of the universe's "big bads": Adrian Veidt aka Ozymandias (Jeremy Irons) and Lady Trieu (Hong Chau) Executive producer and director Nicole Kassell[...]

When we're not obsessing over whether or not Watchmen creator Damon Lindelof would be returning to the universe of his "remix" pseudo-sequel to Alan Moore, David Gibbons, and John Higgins' comic book classic, we take a moment to appreciate the Lost co-creator's Instagram account It's that perfect mix of expected promotion, entertainingly personal, and socially aware that[...]

Watchmen series creator Damon Lindelof took some time to relax and recharge the batteries, and then WarnerMedia made him a sweet FX/Fargo-like deal for more seasons The deal would have him essentially overseeing the Watchmen universe in a nearly-all-powerful executive producer position but opening up the creative opportunities to new, unique, and diverse voices[...]

While most of us are still riding waves of hope that WarnerMedia and series creator Damon Lindelof announce a deal for more Watchmen via HBO Max through an FX/Fargo-like deal (same universe but not necessarily a direct sequel), let's not forget that the original (first of more than one season?) is still receiving well-deserved honors[...]

Like Damon Lindelof's Watchmen on HBO, Devs grapples with the notion that Time is immutable Everything that is going to happen was already predetermined Free will might not exist Once again, Alan Moore, who explored this idea in the original Watchmen comic back in 1986, was ahead of the curve all along Lindelof and Garland,[...]

Joining their current catalogue are two beauties from the eighties, when everything changed, Frank Miller and Klaus Janson's The Dark Knight Returns and Alan Moore and Dave Gibbons' Watchmen. How much money will these original art pages of Dark Knight and Watchmen sell for? So we have Batman: The Dark Knight Falls page 24 by Frank Miller[...]

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. In this time of social distancing and self-quarantining caused by the coronavirus pandemic, Regina King, Tim Blake Nelson, Yahya Abdul-Mateen II, Jean[...]

As well as how the DC Earth has been rebooted and relaunched, from one Crisis to the next… 'Like those poor Watchmen' – very good, Brian, very good, translated, interpreted, misinterpreted… and fictional? And Superman as the only one who can save the timeline But… which Superman?   Jonathan Kent, destined to be Superman, and trained into that[...]

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 in a number of series since, most notably Kingdom Come This is what Alan Moore would have written for DC next if they had agreed to[...]

Luckily, it's by the same writers: Watchmen's Damon Lindelof and Nick Cuse. That being said, if it's not clear, we're going to get into spoilers for The Hunt and HBO's Watchmen. In The Hunt, billionaire liberals led by Athena (Hillary Swank) kidnap a group of strangers, including Crystal (Betty Gilpin) and hunt them Why? Despite what Fox[...]

Tyler (Watchmen, The Purge) are set to join the series, based on characters and situations from Thomas Harris' novels, and stemming from writers and executive producers Alex Kurtzman and Jenny Lumet. A pilot script has been penned and will film before an official series order is given – but a writers room has already been open[...]

But also Watchmen (and Watchmensch) colourist John Higgins, artist Bryan Hitch, as well as Lee Sullivan and Simon Williams. The queue snaked around the store, split in two, and caused minor pandemonium as the crew gained a larger crowd than the store had been expecting, still rather massive when I turned up half an hour later[...]

Who watches the Watchmen? We do. We get Jim Lee's WildCATS, we get Jim Lee's Justice League And Wally West watched Doomsday Clock happen and make more changes. And if some of those events are no longer meant to be in DC canon, well We have contradictory versions of Teen Titans too. All sitting alongside each other in[...]

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 return[...]

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 his[...]
