I have to admit I’m getting horrible memories of Joel Schumacher’s ‘Batman & Robin’ but hopefully they’ll look better on screen. Some other ‘Watchmen’ related stuff I’ve posted here and here.

Still, some of it is pretty funny, especially the ‘Watchmen babies’ bit…

The creator of this site decided that he would take all these individual text pieces and comic panels and put them together as they would have read in the comic. It reads kinda strangely as there’s obviously a lot of negative space but it’s a fabulous story and something that shows you that not all comics are men running around in their underwear…
