Watchmen Hard Cover Collection Coming In November

The award-winning graphic novel that Time Magazine named one of the 100 Best English-language novels from 1923 to today receives a brand-new edition when DC Comics presents its first-ever hardcover edition of Watchmen.

Written by Alan Moore and illustrated by Dave Gibbons, Watchmen forever changed the way comic stories are told by creators and appreciated by readers. Recently, mainstream audiences have been watching for the Watchmen as the 2009 premiere of the Warner Bros./Paramount Pictures adaptation nears, and this new edition offers retailers a handsome way to acquaint newcomers with the classic mystery-adventure.

In addition to the half-insane fugitive hero Rorschach’s dark quest to uncover a plot to murder super-heroes – and, potentially, millions of civilians – this hardcover contains a new cover by Gibbons and high-quality, re-mastered pages by WildStorm FX and original colorist John Higgins, plus select bonus sketches.
The 436-page, full-color volume is set to ship on November 12.
