The news that DC were planning to release Before Watchmen: Moloch came as quite a surprise to fans. Why? Well, despite the fact that the mystical villain plays a major role in Alan Moore and Dave Gibbons' Watchmen, the prequels released so far have focused only on the main cast members. The two-part series will be written by J. Michael Straczynski (Before Watchmen: Nite Owl) and pencilled by Eduardo Risso (100 Bullets), who also provides the cover below which has been released by DC Comics through BuzzFeed. They also reveal the exciting news that Olly Moss will illustrate an issue #1 variant.
