Most of the comics I read are horror comics Sandman, Walking dead..etc. but my friends kept telling me to read Watchmen, and I am glad I finaly did. This book is amazing! Within the first few pages I knew it was a very unique comic. I thought the story is complex and engaging. Most of the book is back story for the main characters, but it is still all very interesting. If your friends keep telling you to read it, listen to them and read it already, I'm sure you'll enjoy it!
