Who watches the watchmen? Get that doomsday clock ticking because this week we have writer and comedian, Alex Kolanko talking about the fearful symmetry of Alan Moore’s most critically acclaimed work, WATCHMEN! We dive into the critique Moore was leveling against the comic industry, anarchist meditations on power, the brilliance of Dave Gibbons nine panel grids, the inherent comedy behind Rorschach (and how some dudes miss the joke) and why the book is completely unadaptable, no matter how hard Hollywood tries (and they do try).
