SINCE PEOPLE ARE LOOKING FOR IT THESE DAYS… my old, long piece on Watchmen–talking about how its reworking of murder-mystery tropes is at least as radical as its reworking of superheroics; how the symmetries work; things it has in common with Shakespeare (really!–and not entirely for the best!); and forgiveness. And probably other stuff I’m forgetting. If you scroll up, there are lots of good responses as well.

More Watchmania.

And I should have another Alan Moore-related piece up sometime this week.

(If you have my copy of Watchmen… who on earth or Mars are you?? And can I have it back?)
