This week we are tackling one of Stu's all-time favorite comics, Alan Moore and Dave Gibbons's Watchmen. We go through the main characters and discuss the apocalyptic ramifications of this extremely well-wrought tale of a society on the edge of destruction. We also tease out the implications of costumed vigilantism suggested by Moore's text, considering how it is these figures which have such a large place in popular culture have no purchase at all in reality. Would a Watchmen-esque scheme to unite the world work in our current reality, or have things like Covid-19 and climate change proven the folly of this premise in our extremely jaded, partisan, too-online world?
We also cover the rise in flu cases across the country and how recent actions by the CDC are not helping with this issue at all.
This episode contains spoilers for the graphic novel Watchmen.
