Okay, I wanna see the Watchmen movie. Of course, I need to read the comic first. I've only read about 1/4th of it then I probably got distracted by Robins or some such. Now, I have a reason to read it. I didn't know Question and Blue Beetle (Ted) had existed BEFORE the Watchmen. I love Ted and Vic, and there are characters based off them in the comic, so says the internet.

Obviously, Rorschach is based off the Question, which made him more awesome than I already thought he was. Nite Owl II is based off Ted, so I hear. <3 And the Comedian is based off of Peacemaker (who we've seen lately in the the latest Blue Beetle run). Three characters based off of three already awesome characters. I gotta read this just for that, then see the movie. <3

I always under the impression that Question came after Rorschach, and that Ted was created during Crisis on Infinite Earths. Guess I was wrong. *goes to read Watchmen* Oh, one quote I remembered that makes me giggle. Thanks, Rorschach.

"Possibly homosexual? Must remember to investigate further." A excerpt from Rorschach's journal about Adrian Veidt.

i didn't read Watchmen, but i thought the movie was decent. i hear if you did read the graphic novel that you'll hate the movie though, so i just want to tell you i'm sorry in advance.

*shrugs* My ex-manager watched it, and he didn't hate it. He thought it was a pretty good adaptation. It only took out things that were obviously not workable for a movie. It'll depend, I guess. If they get Rorschach right, I won't care about anything else. >>;;

Rorschach was clearly the biggest badass ever.

also on a completely different not, i kind of had a crush on Nite Owl II, but i also have a really weird/nerdy taste in guys.

:D Nite Owl II is based off of one of my favorite DC characters.

Blue Beetle II: http://dc.wikia.com/wiki/Ted_Kord

Hehe, and my icon is about him. Ted was such awesome nerdy boy. *kicks DC for killing good things*
