book: watchmen

book: Watchmen, though a graphic novel, is on the list of Time Magazine’s top 100 novels since 1923.

Tells at interwoven story, subverts the graphic novel genre. A complex piece, with lots of hidden detail for future re-readings. Not for kids, given some of the content. Oh, and they’re turning it into a film, somehow.

    I’ve been trying to find a copy of this to read, but all 5 copies seem to be constantly on loan from Christchurch Library.
