Jonathan Osterman

Jonathan Osterman is a figure of quiet, enormous weight in the world of comics — a character born from the visionary collaboration of Alan Moore and Dave Gibbons, here in an Urban Comics edition that brought their landmark Watchmen to a new readership. Emerging in the Modern Age, this is a character whose presence on the page feels genuinely singular, sharing those iconic stories alongside the likes of Edward Blake, Laurie Juspeczyk, and Daniel Dreiberg. Though his catalog footprint here is small, the material he inhabits is anything but — Watchmen remains one of the most celebrated works in the medium, and encountering Jonathan Osterman within it is to meet a character who lingers long after the final page.
