    Damon is being vague about if he will pursue a second season. He mentioned that he would love if someone else took the reigns of the universe to make an anthology type series but he didn’t say he would for sure step away.

    this season is its own story, with a clear conclusion. I think that’s pretty exciting.

    I’m sure if it does well, HBO a will throw a bunch of money at him to make a “second story”

    Bought the ebook today...never read a digital comic before. Is google play books the best app for this? Everything seems a little small on my tablet

    I torrented it and downloaded the iComix app to read it on my iPad

    i had to zoom in and out to read parts of it. Kinda awkward but it worked.

    I also saw on that there is a 12 episode motion comic that is allegedly true to the book. It's uploaded by several folks on youtube. That will be my next rabbit hole after the book.

    It is exactly the book. They just made some animations of the comic.

    Petey is a tall lanky fuck with a fascination with supers. Oh god, now I want to go back to that post-coital scene to see if any of those lube bottles are on the bedside table.

    That was amazing. Of course my wife had to ruin it for me though by screaming out that it jumped the shark when Angela got arrested. I still have no idea why that bothered her.

    I loved what they did with Careless Whisper and the entire backstory. It was really well done.

    This is the most perfect continuation of Watchmen I could have ever imagined.

    Totally new story set perfectly in the world created by the graphic novel.

    Super mild Veidt speculation

    That looked like Jupiter on the horizon, right? I’m guessing Manhattan has imprisoned him on Europa since it’s a known potential harborer of life.

    He’s requesting Lady Trieu to save him via one of her satellites.

    that impact in the initial Trieu scene with the farmers is a flash forward of him returning

    I went to look up an actor on the imdb page and I think I kind of spoiled myself with something. wish I hadn't seen it.

    just letting you guys know in case you want to avoid the same.

    Random thought - if Veidt is on one of Jupiter’s moons, what’s up w that castle Dr Manhattan was destroying on Mars in the first ep?

    This confirms my theory that The Sopranos takes place in the Watchmen universe. Tony has a no-show job after Barone Sanitation won the squid removal bid, Paulie is constantly making bad calamari jokes, and AJ is without question an 11/2 truther.

    show is phenomenal and ep 5 was the best yet (followed by ep 3... really, the less angela the better, it seems for me).

    I also wonder if she has somehow helped him "create" his servants, since she's the only other person that has shown the ability to create human beings. Or perhaps he taught her how to do that?

    Currently rewatching the last episode, Tim Blake Nelson fucking crushed this epi. The interrogation with Blake, watching Hooded Justice gay porn while eating beans Rorshach style, the Alarm malfunction scene...so good
