Watchmen on the eve of the movie release

Date of Review:  Mar 6, 2009
Review: I'm so glad this was the first Alan Moore graphic I read, It had it all, action suspence, even a tryte bitof romance. set in a post cold war era. it shows an altenate view of superhero culture, while darker a little more honest in my opinion.

Anticipation Grows For "Watchmen:" A Superb Graphic Novel!

Date of Review:  Sep 6, 2008
The Bottom Line: A fairly incredible graphic novel, when retired superheroes are hunted and discredited, it seems to relate to a plan to bring about nuclear armageddon between the US and the USSR!
Review: I would like to talk, for a moment, about the penis. The penis; the organ with perhaps the most euphemisms associated with it - phallus, dick, prick, wang, johnson, and hundreds of others - this body part is found on almost half the world's...

Post-Modernism in Comics

Date of Review:  Mar 26, 2000
Review: Any publication that gives an overview of the entire history of comics invites an esthetic analysis of the medium. The Comics Buyer's Guide gives an eagle's eye view. One thing is immediately apparent from the critical perspective: comics began in...

The joke's on us.

Date of Review:  Jul 24, 2001
The Bottom Line: A true work of art.
Review: Alan Moore's story of "real life" super-heroes is just as pertinent today as it was when it first appeared during the cold-war Reagan era, a time when people were a bit more nervous about huge nuclear stockpiles than we are today. This graphic novel...

POTUS W/O: Nixon and Rohrshach are the real heroes of Alan Moore's "Watchmen".

Date of Review:  Jul 24, 2004
The Bottom Line: All right, I hated the ending. . .sorta. As for the Cold War. . .nothing brings people together like a common enemy, eh? Gorbachev and Nixon. . .the ultimate peacemakers.
Review: I found out earlier this month about lorendiac's write/off on the American presidency. Determined to make a contribution, I went to the video store and slowly went through all the "Drama" titles. I considered renting "Amistad," "Megiddo: Armageddon...

A most compelling argument for the benefits of recycling!

Date of Review:  Feb 4, 2009
The Bottom Line: There's a reason this thing is widely known as the seminal text in graphic novel/comic book genre.
Review: So, say you're DC comics. It's 1985, and you just acquired an entire line of characters from Charlton Comics, but you haven't an in the world to do with them. It'd be a shame to let them go to waste....OH! Hey, remember that British dude that did...

Who watches the Watchmen?

Date of Review:  Jan 30, 2000
Review: This stunning volume encompasses the WATCHMEN comic book series as put forth by Alan Moore and Dave Gibbons. The mid-1980's saw a resurgence in comic books that concentrated on hard looks at characters, adult themes and intricate social settings...

Who's Killing The SuperHeroes In Nixon's 1985 America?

Date of Review:  May 24, 2002
The Bottom Line: One of the best works of literature in my home. And I do have more than just comic books, smart guy.
Review: I'm a confirmed DC Comics man. While that means nothing to most of you, hopefully, let me explain: There are two major comics companies out there: DC Comics, whose stable of characters includes Superman, Batman, Wonder Woman, Flash, Green Lantern,...

Who watches the Watchmen?

Date of Review:  Dec 9, 2006
The Bottom Line: If you haven't read this, read it! If you have, read it again!
Review: I haven't read any comics for ages. Four days ago, I went to the store, and I saw a giant box set called Absolute Watchmen. The smiley face with the blood on it really caught my attention. The box claimed that it was one of the best comics ever. I...

Watchmen, by Alan Moore & Dave Gibbons

Date of Review:  Mar 13, 2003
The Bottom Line: Naturally, the best, probably most important, comic in the world is also one of the hardest to find. But believe me, it's worth the search.
Review: What if you could change the world? What if you could unite the planet in a common goal and put an end to war? What if you had to kill 3 million people to do it?

Let me start at the beginning, or as close to the beginning as I can.
...
