About this ebook
This Hugo Award-winning graphic novel chronicles the fall from grace of a group of super-heroes plagued by all-too-human failings. Along the way, the concept of the super-hero is dissected as the heroes are stalked by an unknown assassin. One ofthe most influential graphic novels of all time and a perennial bestseller, WATCHMEN has been studied on college campuses across the nation and is considered a gateway title, leading readers to other graphic novels such as V FOR VENDETTA, BATMAN:THE DARK KNIGHT RETURNS and THE SANDMAN series.

I have hard copy of Watchmen graphic novel, it is the best Superheroe comic ever written, Characters are unique and I especially like anti hero Ozymandias and masked vigilante Rorschach. The story is well developed and it has a depth which makes it a very entertaining to read. Watchmen also inspired so many Superheroes and comic book characters and it is far superior to any other comic. Watchmen is a must read.

The movie was a flop, but the graphic novel blew my mind when first I read it. I highly recommend it those who enjoy an unconventional story and a healthy dose of gray morality.

Fruit for thought (ableit violent graphic look at the filth of the world be live in [unrelenting and emotionless oblivious of the reader]) a hardcore dark story where there is no good or bad , just humanity (NO SUGARCOATING AS IT IS AND NO HOLDS BARRED) not for the weak stomached but an exceptional piece of mindcake, true art the raw humanity as it always should have been
