Watchmen International Edition; DC Comics, 2014

In an alternate world where the mere presence of American superheroes

changed history, the US won the Vietnam War, Nixon is still president, and the

cold war is in full effect. Watchmen begins as a murder-mystery, but

soon unfolds into a planet-altering conspiracy. As the resolution comes to a

head, the unlikely group of reunited heroes--Rorschach, Nite Owl, Silk Spectre,

Dr. Manhattan and Ozymandias - have to test the limits of their

convictions and ask themselves where the true line is between good and evil.

In the mid-eighties, Alan Moore and Dave Gibbons created Watchmen,

changing the course of comics history and essentially remaking how popular

culture perceived the genre. Popularly cited as the point where comics came of

age, Watchmens sophisticated take on superheroes has been universally

acclaimed for its psychological depth and realism.

Watchmen is collected here with a new cover, sketches, extra bonus

material, and a new introduction by series artist Dave Gibbons.
