Nostalgia is not just a perfume…
Everything old is new again. Warner Brothers has released seven movie posters for The Watchmen. These are directly based upon a series of full page ads that DC Comics ran in their August 1986 issues to tease the then-upcoming 12 issue maxi-series by Alan Moore and Dave Gibbons. Some are commenting that the staging of the drawing is incomplete in that there are small details in the drawings that are clues that foreshadow some important events of the story, but these details have been left out of the photos.
