Watchmen

Descriere

In an alternate world where the mere presence of American superheroes n changed history, the US won the Vietnam War, Nixon is still president, and the n cold war is in full effect. Watchmen begins as a murder-mystery, but n soon unfolds into a planet-altering conspiracy. As the resolution comes to a n head, the unlikely group of reunited heroes--Rorschach, Nite Owl, Silk Spectre, n Dr. Manhattan and Ozymandias - have to test the limits of their n convictions and ask themselves where the true line is between good and evil. n n In the mid-eighties, Alan Moore and Dave Gibbons created Watchmen, n changing the course of comics' history and essentially remaking how popular n culture perceived the genre. Popularly cited as the point where comics came of n age, Watchmen's sophisticated take on superheroes has been universally n acclaimed for its psychological depth and realism. n Watchmen is collected here with a new cover, sketches, extra bonus n material, and a new introduction by series artist Dave Gibbons. n
