Book Reviews of Watchmen
Book Review: A comic book for adults who don't read comics
Summary: 5 Stars
A classic book that established the graphic novel as a serious genre. Written by Alan Moore and drawn by Dave Gibbons, this multilayered story is rich in cultural allusion and historical pastiche. Loosely a superhero 'whodunnit' set in an alternate 1985 where Nixon won the Vietnam War, Watchmen simultaneously dissects comic stereotypes and studies the relation of comic imagery to the politics of its time.
