Watchmen: Chapter I was released on this day 2 years ago. At the final sound mix for Chapter II, Atlas Oceanic surprised us with this awesome cake!

Watchmen: Chapter 2, the animated show on MAX is impressive. The animators really knocked it out of the park and the voice actors nailed every single role 5/5 If you've read the comic or not this show is definitely worth watching Action, drama, romance, mystery, murder - this show has it all

Had no idea there was a two-part Watchmen animated film released last year. I watched both parts and haven’t been able to stop thinking about it ever since. Incredible storytelling with a gorgeous animation style.

Watched Chapters 1&2 of the animated Watchmen movies today and they're excellent! The voice acting is top notch but Titus Welliver really stole the show as Rorschach

There appears to be a UK Blu-ray containing both SEPARATE chapters of Watchmen available. I don’t think this is a new edit with both chapters combined into one movie. As of now, I have not overseen such an edit and I’m not aware of any plans for one.

Ok... so The Watchmen Animated is perfection. I have always loved the comic. I genuinely enjoyed Snyder's live action but the love & care in this animated 2 part version is gd brilliant. They captured Gibbons art style really well, the voice cast superb and the slight tweaks were additive.

WATCHMEN CHAPTER 2 Original 13x19” inks for one of THE BLACK FREIGHTER panels/sequence in the second Chapter of WB adaptation of Moore and Gibbons WATCHMEN. I drew the closeup of the survivor separately in an 11x17” so we get good details on screen. Movie is out now on digital/dvd/Blu-ray.

The survivor holds onto the fin of the dead shark he’s using as part of the raft he previously built using corpses of his mates. A large moon in the night sky behind him.

WATCHMEN is my favorite graphic novel, and I'm happy to report the new two-parter animated movie does a very good job of adapting it, animated well and impressively bringing in the extended story aspects (Black Freighter, chapter bookends) cohesively, and landing the end. Worth watching.

The first review for WATCHMEN Chapter Two, which I adapted for Warners. (I opted not to "make it mine" by adding a lot of my own stuff, I just recalibrated the structure for animation, so I requested an adapted by credit instead of written by.) Very positive article. www.ign.com/articles/wat...

The original art for the TALES OF THE BLACK FREIGHTER cover I did for WATCHMEN animated 2 chapters feature. Inks on 13x19” Fabriano board. The idea was to have the radioactive symbol ☢️ worked in the composition to help with the transition from the comic to the present time. Can you see it? 😀
