Who Watches the Watchmen?

Motion Comic?  I do.

There was a movie a few years back too, but it was not great. The Watchmen story is great however so the movie could have been.  The motion comic was pretty satisfying though.  Motion Comic means it's the actual drawings from the books Photoshopped into moving scenes, which if you're coming to it from the actual comic-magazines as I am, it's pretty much better than the original.  The success of this kind of thing rests on the skill of the voice-actors, or in this case actor, though this guy does a pretty good job.  It's an incredible tale spanning twelve super-intense episodes and husky-voiced heroines aside it was done pretty well.  After watching them here and there over the last couple weeks I finished off the last three tonight - comics are for children, ya right.

The name is taken from the speech Kennedy was going to give the day he was shot.

We in this country, in this generation, are --- by destiny rather than choice --- the watchmen on the walls of world freedom.
