WATCHMEN: THE ABSOLUTE EDITION

Written by Alan Moore, Artist by Dave Gibbons

Details:

"AT MIDNIGHT, ALL THE AGENTS AND SUPERHUMAN CREW GO OUT AND ROUND UP EVERYONE WHO KNOWS MORE THAN THEY DO" - BOB DYLAN "Watchmen is peerless." - Rolling Stone "His sci-fi detective masterpiece Watchmen made [Alan Moore] the comic industry's de facto leader back in 1986."

"Watchmen" redefined superhero conventions and re-introduced comics to an adult audience with a gripping, labyrinthine piece of comic art. Rorschach, a half-psychotic vigilante, must convince his ex team-mates, now middle-aged and retired, that he has uncovered a plot to murder the remaining superheroes - along with millions of innocent civilians...Even reunited, will the remnants of the "Watchmen" be enough to avert a global apocalypse? With a powerful storyline masterfully told by comics supremo Alan Moore and beautifully rendered artwork by the talented Dave Gibbons - this is the one that started it all and is definitely not one to miss!

Celebrate the 20th anniversary of Watchmen, the classic 12-issue miniseries by Alan Moore and Dave Gibbons, with Watchmen: The Absolute Edition, the first hardcover of this classic work in more than a decade.

This oversized (8.25" x 12.5") hardcover collection, packaged inside a beautifully designed slipcase, will be the cornerstone of any serious comic book collection. Each page of art has been restored and recolored by WildStorm FX and original series colourist John Higgins and approved by Dave Gibbons to appear as originally intended.

Additionally, this grand tome will include 48 pages of supplemental material produced exclusively for the Graphitti Designs Watchmen hardcover edition and not seen since their original publication. Included therein is a cornucopia of rare and historically valuable treasures, including samples of Moore's Watchmen scripts, the original Watchmen proposal, Gibbons's conceptual art, cover roughs, and much, much more.

This is a very special, collector's edition of one of the most important graphic novels ever, one which constantly features in the top ten lists of fans and one of the few works which can legitimately claim to have changed the genre.
