So, a few months ago I ordered copy of Watchmen. Unfortunately, when I did so, I ordered the hardcover edition which was a prerelease. I had forgotten about it quite completely until it arrived yesterday on my doorstep. It had been recomended to me by someone (I've forgotten who at this point) and I was suprised by its quality. It was good enough that I read through about 60% in one sitting (it was after midnight at that point and I had an 8am meeting) and finished the rest after work today.

What I don't understand is how anyone intends to make a movie of it. It seems as if having a big naked blue man wouldn't fit into the demographics that an X-men or Spiderman might target. Then again, maybe they're doing it as equal time for Mystique...
