Honestly one of the best ideas that DC has ever had in my honest opinion. I loved Rorschach, Minutemen, and Dr. Manhattan. Was a bit iffy about Comedian and Nite Owl though.

This topic is here to discuss the DC prequel series Before Watchmen.

Also...
[spoiler=Why I don't care what Alan Moore has to say]
Alan Moore is an annoying, whiny, comic book artist whose only redeeming feature is the stories he makes.

His stories tend to be annoying, his plot lines overtly odd, and he couldn't consistently develop a good character for the life of him *Except in Watchmen*.

You know what's really funny? When the Watchmen film came out, Moore publicly denied owning the rights and asked to have his name removed from the credits, wanting to not be the owner of it anymore. Then when they came out with Before Watchmen, he suddenly decided it was his again and moaned and complained about it like he always does, saying that those who read Before Watchmen would be doing him a huge favor by not reading his comics.

Screw him, all he ever does is whine and complain about the comic book industry and then come up with a famous comic book so everybody can buy them and he gets critically acclaimed, again.

I am sick of his groaning and so I read some Before Watchmen with pride, why? Mostly because some of them were good! I don't care what you think Alan Moore, because if you could honestly go one day in your life without insulting the way DC does business and the way the comic book industry works then I would just be your biggest fan.

Time to add wood for the fire, as it turns out, the editor of the original Watchmen, was actually a writer of one of the Before Watchmen books! Isn't that great!?

As per usual, I don't like you Alan Moore and you are damn lucky you can occasionally make a good story.[/spoiler]

While I agree with most that this series won't add anything new or special to "The Watchmen", why should I care cause it's still fun to read. Roeschach, Silk Spectre, Minutemen, Dr. Manhattan, Nite Owl and Moloch are all better than one would expected. Not surprising since most of the writers are from Vertigo itself. Ozzy and The Comedian's story are a bit ehh..but Ozzy has a great artist with them so that's a plus. Wished they released this on Vertigo's banner though. Anyway, who cares bout Moore nowadays, all the character in The Watchmen aren't even his creation. All of them are either c-list character that either stuck in comic limbo or jobbing to DC's main hero during the golden (or was it silver) age.
