DC Comics Announces "Before Watchmen"

eldavojohn writes "Currently DC Comics' site has a banner announcing a new series called "Before Watchmen." Unfortunately the blog pages for this new series appear to be experiencing high traffic and are unreachable. But a number of sites are breaking down these new endeavors that will be giving backstories to the seven characters and who will be creating each of those series. There's also speculation ranging from how much this must upset Alan Moore (egg frying on his forehead seems to be the popular guess) to the theory that this is simply for more movie material. There's an abundance of information from interviews released today."

    I can't wait to have Alan Moore sign my copy of Watchman Babies: V for Vacation!

      Be sure to wear your Saturday Morning Watchmen T-shirt, to show your loyalty to, and understanding of, his artistic vision. It'll make him more likely to cooperate.

    I can't believe DC or Marvel would compromise artistic integrity for a buck.
