[!@#$%!]

i didnt like watchmen much. i read it, it was alright, but i wasn't as entertained by it as people seem to be here. i don't get its cult status. the written pages were actually the most annoying-- those fictional references a la borges, but in bad prose-- meh. the story was alright, the characters annoying, the art ok though traditional.

mr. toilet pointed out love and rockets as his favorite, and while i haven't read the whole of this series i've enjoyed it lots more than watchmen-- the illustration is way cooler, the characters are awesome, there's good use of humor, and there's no grandiose plot to save the world brought to us by superhumans.
