ugh... DC makes me sick with these Watchmen crap-quals

Thats right! Watchmen should be preserved as a work of art in its originality. DC has no right to expand on canvas that Alan Moore invisioned from his own mind without inspiration. The Watchmen world has nothing to offer beyond the original story. A world devoid of merit or scope beyond the greatest creation or The Watchmen. I say let these characters die with this story to only live when someone stumbles on the book in second hand. DC be damned for exploiting this world that only has one story to tell.

DC: I swear if we beat it enough, money will eventually come, right?

Surely everyone declaring them crap because you believe that Watchmen is "untouchable" is ridiculous? In fact, Moore himself said that DC offered him back the rights a few years ago and he declined. DC have every right to make prequels. Besides did any of you even read Minutemen? It was fantastic.

The Art is great, and I trust Cooke to deliver on story like he did with Minutemen.

Moore is a pompus D-Bag without the Charlton Characters the Watchmen are based on this wouldn't even exist. He's also making more money from royalties alone in one year than most of us do in several.

Besides the man hasn't done anything relevant in years, all his Avatar crap is .. well... crap.

might have to check them out, the comedian comes after hers, he seems like an interesting character from what little bit he was in the movie

@ JYCowboy - WOW! You're entire post was sarcasm, then you accuse someone else of sarcasm, and you weren't even sure they were referring to you. Ego much? You're post would have been fine until it was apparent that you were sitting around waiting for somebody to comment on your 'handy work."
