Watchmen (New Edition) #[nn]

Alan Moore and Dave Gibbons's landmark twelve-issue maxiseries is collected here in a new 2019 edition from DC, presenting the complete story of two generations of costumed heroes — the disbanded Minutemen of the 1940s and their successors — caught up in a conspiracy that unfolds against an alternate-history Cold War America teetering on the brink of nuclear annihilation. The series deconstructs the superhero genre through a rotating cast that includes the nihilistic Rorschach, the godlike Doctor Manhattan, and the calculating Ozymandias, weaving together murder mystery, moral philosophy, and political paranoia. Widely regarded as a defining work of the medium, this edition collects the full original story with John Higgins's coloring intact.
