Rumored 'Watchmen' Prequel Project Art Surfaces

Dear DC:
Please stop doing this. It's a really, really, REALLY bad idea.
Love,
John

I dunno - on one hand Watchmen was this really iconic, "legendary" sort of story. Well writen and drawn. But honestly... I suppose I wouldn't really mind seeing more stories in that "world" they created. More of the backstory of the characters we know so well. Maybe more detail into some of the incidents that lead to some of the stories they mentioned in the original Watchmen series.

Honestly, Moore can f--k himself if he thinks that anything not written by him would be '****' - and even the whole arguement that none of his stories are filmable - they are in the right hands. Honestly Watchmen the movie was pretty damned close to the comics as they really could get., maybe they could have had a more "Nolan" esque sensitbility to it, but... still. It wasn't horrible. No more horrible than any other movie based on a book.

A sequal would suck since well... three of the main characters are dead or no longer 'around' - and while it would be interesting to see Silk Spectre's new costume - I dunno... but a prequel doesn't bother me too much. I'd probably buy it depending if the writing and the art was good.

this is SUPREMELY ******* idiotic.

Don't tell me you wouldn't buy it if Kubert or Jones was drawing it.

I'd like to see a book with the original Charlton characters, Blue Beetle, Captain Atom, The Question, Peter Cannon, Peacemaker, and Nightshade.

"Panic Room". Indeed.

Don't mean to be vulgar, but it will literally be less painful to sh#@ a brick than to read this. Sorry if my argument was not more eloquent, i don't believe such a proposal deserves a thoughtful critique.

Codpiece ahoy!

I don't think DC has any writers who would have both motive and opportunity to do a decent Watchmen prequel. A terrible one, sure, they could manage that, they're good at that.

Amazing art... but I'm not sure about how I feel about a Watchmen sequel/prequel/continuation. Watchmen had it all.
