Watchmen
Nothing ever ends...
Created by Damon Lindelof
On HBO
A dense, visually stunning deconstruction of superhero mythology set in a paranoid alternate America, grappling with power, race, and the impossibility of justice.
Set in an alternate history where “superheroes” are treated as outlaws, “Watchmen” embraces the nostalgia of the original groundbreaking graphic novel while attempting to break new ground of its own.
