    • Watchmen

      • 448 pages
      • 16 hours of reading

      In an alternate world where the mere presence of American superheroes changed history, the US won the Vietnam War, Nixon is still president, and the cold war is in full effect. Watchmen begins as a murder-mystery, but soon unfolds into a planet-altering conspiracy. As the resolution comes to a head, the unlikely group of reunited heroes--Rorschach, Nite Owl, Silk Spectre, Dr. Manhattan and Ozymandias - have to test the limits of their convictions and ask themselves where the true line is between good and evil. In the mid-eighties, Alan Moore and Dave Gibbons created Watchmen, changing the course of comics' history and essentially remaking how popular culture perceived the genre. Popularly cited as the point where comics came of age, Watchmen's sophisticated take on superheroes has been universally acclaimed for its psychological depth and realism. Watchmen is collected here with a new cover, sketches, extra bonus material, and a new introduction by series artist Dave Gibbons.

      Co se doma uvaří, to se doma sní. Obyvatelé hornického městečka v poušti Nového Mexika dostali ultimátum: musí se odstěhovat, protože celé území zabírá armáda jako vojenské pásmo. Někteří uposlechli, jiní své domovy opustit odmítli a ukryli se ve starých důlních šachtách. Netušili však, že armáda bude na jejich území zkoušet jaderné zbraně. Hluboké štoly dokázaly původní obyvatele před následky výbuchů ochránit, radiace se však v oblasti držela i dlouho poté, co pokusy skončily, a pod jejím vlivem se začaly rodit zmutované děti. Při boji o přežití v nehostinné poušti nebylo možné brát na nikoho ohledy.

    • John Constantine, the main character in Hellblazer, was originally a very minor character in DC Comics' Swamp Thing. Next came his only series, in which this hard-smoking, hard-drinking, all around manipulator walked the thin line of magic between this world and hell. So when Irishman Garth Ennis was asked to write this comic book, he had asked himself, "What could I possibly do to John Constantine that hadn't been done before? And one course of action suddenly stood out above all others: Kill him." The result is a tense supernatural drama that begins with Constantine being diagnosed with terminal lung cancer. Though this book only hints at the freeform casualness and over-the-top vulgarity that became Ennis's trademark in the Preacher series, this is an immensely enjoyable read with strong characters and dynamite plot twists. --Jim PascoeCollects Hellblazer #41-46.
