Watchmen was the first graphic novel I read. I’ve seen V for Vendetta and Sin City and 300 and so forth, but never got around to actually reading one.
It was excellent! I’m not sure that the format is superior to just having words, though it allows some freedoms that are hard in a book not written like House of Leaves. Not sure how it’s going to do in movie form, but I’m hopeful.
9/10.
I just read it too, thought it was pretty cool… especially the way he worked in that pirate ship/shipwreck story.

It works with the superhero genre better than text seems to, because it’s in a similar medium.
