But I suspect that the problem is that so many comics have been influenced by it that we can appreciate how groundbreaking it was anymore.Marty Runyonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08456700794989273981noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-38541167.post-10907174953509904022012-02-03T18:23:34.343-08:002012-02-03T18:23:34.343-08:00If the folks involved can manage to create some ne...If the folks involved can manage to create some new and compelling stories with those characters, more power to them. However I'm more than a bit skeptical that what we get will add up to more that SW Ep 1-3 or the second two films of the matrix trilogy. Watchmen stands pretty well on its own, I doubt this new stuff will add much.Yeebohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08028940396189544294noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-38541167.post-60633490650748058882012-02-03T18:20:13.629-08:002012-02-03T18:20:13.629-08:00Funny thing about all this, is it reminds me how s...Funny thing about all this, is it reminds me how surprised I was that when I finally sat down to read Watchmen I didn't think much of it. I fully expect the prequels to be universally panned, and I equally expect to enjoy them more than the original.Blue Kaehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03837719824734379806noreply@blogger.com
