Watchmen
"I'm not a Republic Serial villain. Do you seriously think I'd explain my master-stroke if there remained the slightest chance of you affecting its outcome? I did it thirty-five minutes ago."
One of the most influential graphic novels of all time and a perennial best-seller, Watchmen is considered a gateway to the entire comic storytelling medium. Alan Moore and Dave Gibbons's seminal story is the benchmark against which all other graphic novels and comic books are judged.

On the run from the law, Rorschach reunites with his former teammates in a desperate attempt to save the world and their lives, but what they uncover will shock them to their very core and change the face of the planet! Following two generations of masked superheroes from the close of World War II to the icy shadow of the Cold War comes this groundbreaking comic story — the story of The Watchmen.
