Watchmen Prequels Announced

http://www.comicsalliance.com/2012/0...rom-dc-comics/

It was rumoured for a long time, but looks like they're actually going for it.

Alan Moore is very displeased: http://www.comicsalliance.com/2012/0...thics-prequel/

Apparently he had originally planned prequels, but DC argued with him over who the focus should be on, Moore wanted to write for the original Minutemen, DC wanted more Rorschach and Nite Owl. And they got good talent on these, but its just like, what else is there to say?

Not only that, but I never liked most of the characters. When I saw Kickass I thought they were trying to do what Watchmen to me did, show how in the real world, superheroes would probably be crazy, unlikeable, and exploited. There are good villain and anti-hero comics but somehow I dont' think that's the direction they're going with.
