Review:
Published in the mid/late eighties, WATCHMEN represents
the epitome of what comic books could be….smart,
complex and relevant.
WATCHMEN is considered (by both comic and non-comic
readers alike) as one, if not THE greatest comic book
ever published.
Written by Alan Moore, WATCHMEN analyzes how superheroes
will interact in the real world. I cannot begin to
describe how genuine the characters and their reactions
are.
WATCHMEN is so complex that Moore specifically designed
the story to be presented in the comic book format
only. No other medium could give WATCHMEN justice even
if they try to adapt the book in another format.
So if you want to read one of the best books the comics
medium has to offer, you can never go wrong with WATCHMEN.
Other works:
From
Hell (Eddie Campbell Comics), Promethea (ABC/Wildstorm
Comics), Top
10 (ABC/Wilstorm Comics), Snakes & Ladders (Top Shelf Productions), Captain
Britain (Marvel
Comics)
