Spoilers for Watchmen ahead, I guess, if you happen to be a Charlton fan.
As I was processing back issues today:
Me (holding a copy of Watchmen #12): “Wow, hard to believe it’s been nearly 20 years, and we’re still talking about this comic.”
Pal Dorian: “Did you ever read Watchmen and picture the original Charlton heroes in the main characters’ parts?”
M: “Oh, sure. Actually, it’s a good thing Moore didn’t use the Charlton characters as he planned…I have a feeling Watchmen would have been long forgotten if he had. Well, except for the Charlton fans bitching about what he did to ‘their’ characters.”
D: “‘Oh no! Peter Cannon’s a villain!'”
M: “‘I can’t believe they killed off the Question!'”
