WATCHMEN


On the hype of the upcoming movie i was able to get the 22th publishing of the classic graphic novel WATCHMEN at Chicago O'Hare.First printed in a 12 limited series that ran from 1986 to 1987 written by Alan Moore,and drawn Dave Gibbons.It had been awhile since i enjoyed this story.No wonder it's regarded as on of the greatest comics ever made.You know what they say about the classics,they never get old..Let's hope the upcoming motion picture is atleast half as good as this.
