Unpopular opinion: It's a nothing story
Edit: After watching the movie I realize it was a pacing issue though I do still have many gripes

Had to read this for class. I’m one of the only people who have actually read it. It’s one of my favorite franchises of all time now.

Dr. Manhattan starts a relationship with Laurie when she’s 16 and he’s in his 30s. This is acknowledged but Dr. Manhattan is never punished for it.

I'm so conflicted about that ending. I mean, that's probably the point, but still...

THE GREATEST GRAPHIC NOVEL(COMIC BOOK) EVER, A 12 CHAPTER MASTERPIECE THAT REVOLUTIONIZED COMIC BOOKS AND LEFT AN INDELIBLE MARK ON LITERATURE AND MEDIA. ITS INTRICATE PLOT AND MORALLY COMPLEX CHARACTERS EXPLORE THEMES OF HEROISM, IDENTITY, AND MORALITY. ALAN MOORE'S CREATION ELEVATED THE GENRE, INSPIRING A NEW WAVE OF STORYTELLING THAT EMBRACES MATURITY AND MORAL AMBIGUITY. IT'S ABOUT AN ALTERNATE 1980S AMERICA, WHERE RETIRED SUPERHEROES CONFRONT A GLOBAL CONSPIRACY, FUSES GRITTY REALISM WITH FANTASY, PUSHING CREATIVE BOUNDARIES AND INFLUENCING GENERATIONS OF CREATORS. NOT RECOMMENDED TO NEW COMIC BOOK READERS
