"Watchmen"


NOT WORTH CONSUMING
I love Alan Moore, This is not, by far, his best. I did not like the gritty, graphic universe in which Richard Nixon is still president by 1985. The ending was pretty smart, except that the “bad guy” does the all-time cliché of all comics- a monologue, a 20 page monologue!!!

And what’s with Hooded Justice? Who was he what was the big mystery to his identity. I understood he was gay- but was that the big mystery or who in fact was under the mask? I thought it was the later.

And the Pirate comic inside of the comic- I didn’t get it.

Too many mysteries- if I wanted mysteries, I would have played CLUE instead.

Sorry, no go for me.
