This stunning graphic novel chronicles the fall from grace of a group of superheroes plagued by all too human failings. The concept of the super hero is dissected and inverted as strangely realistic characters are stalked by an unknown assassin. Originally published as a 12 issue series in 1986 and 1987, WATCHMEN remains one of DC Comics' most popular graphic novels.

"Tom Strong. A hero for the modern age-- for more than one hundred years! From his arrival in Millennium City, this handsome hero has championed the ordinary people of the city, saving them from the villainous Paul Saveen's many nefarious schemes, rescuing them from buildings overtaken by the Modular Man and his technological trumpery, even traveling overseas to fight the creeping Nazi menace! These days, when he's not patrolling the skies in his heli-vest, taking down blimp bandits and making sure the strongmen of America arrive at school promptly, Tom makes time for friends and family. But since their family outings are likely to be just as adventurous as his solo exploits, there's not a dull moment to be found!" -- dust jacket flap.

"In a story full of lust, madness, and ecstasy, we meet twelve distinctive characters that lived in the same region of central England over the span of six thousand years. Their narratives are woven together in patterns of recurring events, strange traditions, and uncanny visions. First, a cave-boy loses his mother, falls in love, and learns a deadly lesson. He is followed by an extraordinary cast of characters: a murderess who impersonates her victim, a fisherman who believes he has become a different species, a Roman emissary who realizes the bitter truth about the Empire, a crippled nun who is healed miraculously by a disturbing apparition, an old crusader whose faith is destroyed by witnessing the ultimate relic, two witches, lovers, who burn at the stake. Each interconnected tale traces a path in a journey of discovery of the secrets of the land."--Publisher's description.
