Who Watched the Watchmen? Justice League Unlimited

January 12, 2023 by David Mann 1 Comment

It is often said that Watchmen is the most influential comic ever to be released. That comics wouldn’t be where they are without it, for good and for ill. But how did we get here, exactly? More to the point, just what influence did Watchmen provide to the larger world of comics? What, ultimately, is the legacy of Watchmen? Who watched the Watchmen?

The simple version: our topic series has The Question as one of its main characters exposing an apocalyptic conspiracy aimed at the superhero community, prominently features Captain Atom, partially climaxes in a false flag disaster engineered by the world’s smartest man posing as hero, and ends on the question “Quis custodiet ipsos custodes?” (even if the response offers up the fig leaf translation “Who guards the guardians?”). By that metric alone, the widely beloved ‘Cadmus arc’ of Justice League Unlimited is indisputably A Watchmen. Plus Alan Moore liked the one episode. Case closed.

The more significant answer is that to a substantial cross-generational section of the pop culture viewership, the Cadmus arc is Superhero TV Watchmen.

Ed Brubaker on Batman: Caped Crusader, Streaming Comics, & Comics Adaptations!

January 10, 2023 by Dave Leave a Comment

Ed Brubaker is one of my favorite writers in comics (I counted: I have 13 of his works in my top 500 favorite comics of all time!). I still kind of can’t believe I got to interview him for nearly two hours!

You can hear our full conversation on Comic Book Herald’s interviews on the podcast.

But since some people prefer the ancient art of “reading,” we’ve also transcribed a segment of the interview below, focused on the status of Batman: Caped Crusader, adapting comics for Hollywood, and some insights into digital comic book streaming. The transcription has been slightly edited for clarity. Read and enjoy! [Read more…] about Ed Brubaker on Batman: Caped Crusader, Streaming Comics, & Comics Adaptations!
