a brilliant character study but a boring story.
I's one of those stories that gets better with each reading.
The story is great, but I was really impressed with the pacing of the story and the use of the 9 panel grid.
My favourite part’s just trying to spot all the little details. Every newspaper headline, every piece of graffiti, there’s always another bit of symbolism weaved into the art.
Probably Moore's best work.
Worth reading just for how influential it turned out to be.
And as pointed out, there's an insane level of care put into layout, backgrounds etc.
this. i always find myself rereading certain issues, particularity issues 4 and 6
for me, the best comics ever written are JLA 14 and watchmen #4
doomsday clock #10 and Watchmen #4 are really great comics and reading them after each other is a top tier experience
i remember dave gibbons gave an interview abut how the script would be like 1 page about 1 panel.
id love to go back to 1986-1987 and read watchmen then. im sure back then it was a seismic shift in comics
I could never decide if Fearful Symmetry being mirrored forwards and backwards was clever layout or a bit too “cute” for its own good.
