Reviews for Watchmen
"A work of ruthless psychological realism, it’s a landmark in the graphic novel medium. It would be
a masterpiece in any."
-TIME, TIME MAGAZINE’s 100 best English-language novels from 1923 to the present.
"Watchmen is peerless."
- Rolling Stone
"His sci-fi detective masterpiece Watchmen made [Alan Moore] the comic industry's de facto leader back in 1986."
- The Guardian
"A masterwork representing the apex of artistry in its respective medium . . . Trailblazing." -
Entertainment Weekly
"A brilliant piece of fiction." - Richard Gehr, The Village Voice
"When first serialized in 1986-7, this extraordinary story took the comics world by storm, and its fresh approach, more mature and realistic than most other mainstream comics of the time, became a template for much of what came later...This remains a pinnacle of comics achievement, and no collection should be without it.."
