One of the greatest graphic novels ever written
One of the greatest graphic novels ever written. I loved the watchmen and bought the graphic novel a long time ago, loved the film also. However, as soon as i realised it was available on kindle I bought it instantly. I love the feeling I can read this anytime, anywhere. I highly recommend purchasing this book if you like comic book heroes with an edge

if you only read one graphic novel…
Make it this one. Picked it up for a bargain, haven’t read it in 20 years and as amazing now as it was back then.

Even better than I remember
Revisited this classic, and it was such a joy to see that it's even better than I remember. The kindle edition makes me appreciate the layout and details on the individual panels even more because, of course, If you double tap, each panel fills the screen. If you don't know the story, it begins with the gruesome murder of a former masked crime fighter, and a conspiracy is gradually unveiled which raises a very awkward question about how far to go in pursuit of true world peace. Does any end justify the means it took to get there? This deserves to be up there with the same high esteem as the major literary classics. You'll spot things on repeated readings which you didn't notice the first time, so it's well worth adding this to your collection.

Watchmen.
What can I say that has not been said before?Every part of it has been meticulously crafted, not to ‘the highest standard’ but to a new standard.

Bent cover
Books looks good, I would give it 5 starts if not for the damaged bent cover in the back. It also isn't packaged in any way/protected with any foil - just placed directly in the cardboard amazon envelope. COmic itself looks amazing

Un requisito para quien sea que sepa leer
Está edición tiene un papel semi-glossy que halaga el arte de Dave Gibbons, y el material adicional provee datos muy interesantes acerca del proceso de escritura y planeación de la novela.En cuanto al contenixo, la escritura de Moore es sumamente sofisticada, tratando temas sociales relevantes con un acercamiento excéntrico y representativo del entorno socio-político de Estados Unidos de finales del Siglo XX, en conjunción con cuestionamientos filsofóficos representados con el contraste de personajes que son sumamente memorables y profundos.El arte de Gibbons, por su lado, expresivo y denso. Me parece especialmente genial cómo más allá de lo superficial hay mecánicas en cada capítulo que aprovechan al máximo el medio de la novela gráfica, como el Capítulo 5, en el que cada cuadro es un espejo de la página opuesta.Cómo un lector ávido de comics, puedo afirmar que este es el mejor que ha llegado a mis manos, y por un buen margen. Cada cuadro está lleno de contenido interpretativo, y los personajes junto a sus temas presentan la primera subversion importante del superhéroe y, en mi opinión, la mejor hasta ahora. No se tiene que ser un fan de cómics para poder leerlo. Es de las mejores novelas gráficas, pero también de las mejores novelas a secas. Eso no se puede debatir, y tampoco el hecho de que tienes que leerlo.Ojalá todos los libros fueran así, pero sólo este lo es.
