Ok, eigenlijk zijn het alle 6 delen, maar aangezien ik die versie niet vond, heb ik deze maar aangeduid :).
Erg goed vond ik! (Alleen had ik dat van HJ niet echt verwacht...)

El conjunto de comics de la serie "Before Watchmen" oscilan entre la simple explotación de la obra original y, como en este caso, el cariñoso y respetuoso homenaje. Nada podía casar mejor con las aventuras de los Minutemen que el dibujo dinámico de [a:Darwyn Cooke|61386|Darwyn Cooke|https://images.gr-assets.com/authors/1202672820p2/61386.jpg] y su retcon del libro "Under the Hood" es a la vez respetuosa y sorprendente. Dibujo e historia encajan extraordinariamente y nos proporcionan una visión alternativa de la primera generación de enmascarados. Como pega, podríamos indicar que se echa de menos la visión de Cooke de algunos de los eventos que se describen en Watchmen y cuya elipsis en este cómic, perjudica su estatus de obra completa.

This was more like an intro issue. We meet the Minutemen and get an intro to each member. Nite Owl is the narrator because most of this is an info dump kind of issue.

Ok, puesto que no hallé la versión compilatoria que poseo, creo que voy a inundar sus noticias por un rato. Esta historia me está gustando bastante :D

At first I was hesitant to read Before Watchmen due to Alan Moore's reaction to it. But eventually curiosity took over and I started. This series is about the first group of masked adventurers The Minutemen.
It is narrated by the first Nite Owl and I actually enjoyed reading it. There's a somewhat funny side to it. And the thing I liked the most about it was reading about the not so familiar characters of the Mothman, the Hooded Justice and the Silhouette. And you understand some of the reasons behind their final fates.
Overrall, not like the Watchmen but still fine reading.

I didn't really care much about the Minutemen to begin with, so I don't know what I was expecting.

Also, I read the edition that was both Minutemen and Silk Spectre. I marked this one as read so that they would show up as two separate books because that's what they are.
