Superheroes have been outlawed, with some going into retirement, some becoming government agents, and still others turning to vigilantism. And an unknown assassin is stalking a group of heroes who’ve fallen from grace, plagued by all-too-human failings. After this scattered team—Rorschach, Nite Owl, Silk Spectre, Dr. Manhattan, and Ozymandias—comes together to mourn a friend, they discover that the murder is part of a larger plot to upend the fragile geo-political balance and spread calamity across the world. Graphic novels to read anywhere: DC Compact Comics collect DC’s bestselling, most iconic stories in a new size! This portable pocket edition is a great entry point for fans new to Watchmen!
