This weekend, DC Comics launched a website for The New Frontiersman, the fictional newspaper first seen in Alan Moore and Dave Gibbons’ Watchmen. It’s a front page with some stories “to be continued on page…” and no pages to flip through. It was a pretty unremarkable little site, even if...
Update: The artwork at Bleeding Cool has been removed with a note saying it was removed at the request of DC Comics. Over at Bleeding Cool today, they ran a pair of stories that appear to blow the lid off the series of stories that the news and rumor site has...

If you caught the beginning of my belated Watchmen movie review, yesterday, I outlined what I loved about the Watchmen film adaptation. Today, I will detail what I hated about it. Hang on to your hats… Malin Akerman’s Acting – Wow, just wow. It’s a good thing she looked hot...
While one of my fellow Comicbook.com writers weighed in with his Watchmen movie review on opening weekend, I was one of those rare souls who didn’t rush to see the movie immediately. Ok, I had a travel conflict, but I finally got the chance to see the Watchmen movie over...
