      I'm surprised he didn't say anything bad about DC using his Watchmen characters for the storyline 'Doomsday Clock' which sees the likes of Superman encountering Dr.Manhatten, who was responsible for the new 52 reboot.

    • @Ronno4691
      @Ronno4691 Před 6 lety +36

      scifiguy9000 Moore knew that DC Comics strip mining the Watchmen was inevitable; I haven't seen him pass comment on Doomsday Clock or news that Promethea and Tom Strong have been integrated into the regular DC Comics universe because he knows it would have happened sooner or later. Which it did, with the Before Watchmen nonsense and before that, characters from his 1980s Tales Of The Green Lantern short stories popping up in recent Green Lantern storylines (by Geoff Johns). Note that nothing like this happens with Neil Gaiman. My interpretation of this is that Moore's stuff is so high profile, so prestigious and so damn good above and beyond anything else written by anyone who came after him that the temptation to pilfer it is irresistible. I don't purchase these knock offs myself but that's my choice.

      The first two eps seemed pretty cautious and not too risk taking, but the third ep introducing an older and more jaded Laurie who hates costumes vigilantes as opposed to the naive version of the Silk Spectre from the comics was pretty cool.
      I also like how they’re slowly introducing Ozymamdias and using Dr Manhattan as that world’s equivalent to god.
      It is a slow moving series that’s a lot more character based than plot or action based, but I feel they genuinely have intentions to tell an interesting story with the characters/Watchmen property. Hopefully the series doesn’t stagnate past Ep 3 for me.
