Pictures!

I can't believe how good The Watchmen is. I mean, I knew that when I read it the first time. But it's amazing how well it holds up and how all the extras at the end of the individual chapters are so interesting in their own right. I'm even MORE nervous about the upcoming film adaptation upon the reread given how dense the graphic novel is. There are plenty of things they can simplify (leaving out the older generation of heroes, for example), but aiyah. There is too much to do justice to it all.

However, if this new picture is any indication, it's still gonna look f'ing pretty. The look they've got. That's something at least (and more than Daredevil ever could boast).

Speaking of looks, take a peep at Harvey Dent on his bad day (not spoilery unless you really have no idea what they'd possibly do with his character in the upcoming The Dark Knight). Can't say I love the hair, though it does make a certain kind of sense that other versions have not. Scariest bit of all is that the make-up-free side is more scary than the other.

Last but not least (oh, there'll be more this Thursday, fer sure), three generations of the suit. GLEE.

That Harvey Dent pic is a manip. :) It's a cap from The Black Dahlia. There have been no leaked pics so far, just of the Two-Face toy, and even as blurry as that sneaksy cell phone shot is, the scarring looks a helluva lot cooler than that manip.

Ah, well, that'll learn me to look at the pictures on SuperHeroHype with a less than jaded eye. It's funny, though, since that does look very like the toy. I suppose that's why, though.
