Finally I have finished this Watchmen novel that took me an week to finished.  I could of finished it quicker if I put more time into it but I decided to read like one or two to three chapters an day. 

Now about the novel, it is about an group; of superheroes who are solving the murder of one of their fellow teammates and they are having an hard time and the world is starting to fall apart when world war three is about too hit.  It shows the dark side of life and how cruel the world can be.  There is a lot of blood,killing,violence, and other stuff like that some people would not approve. 

About the charcters.  My favorite might be Rorscrach because he is the most different out of the super heroes.  Why?..Because he has done some violent stuff to criminals to get answers to figure out about the mess that was going on and he hates it when he sees someone getting hurt for no reason.  For example, when Rorscrach in prison and talking to Dr. Malcom, he told him about an case in 1975 or around that.  It starts when Rorscrach was looking for this girl that was kiddnapped, he finds out that the kiddnapper fed her to two german shepards.  When he finds out about that, he kills the two dogs and when the kiddnapper gets home, he opens an door and finds his two dogs dead.  Then Rorschrach puts handcuffs on the guy and sets his house on fire and leaves him to burn.  Another one is when he broke an guys finger when he wanted information about Comedians death.  Rorschrach is also clever when an guy is about to throw an glass at him, Rorschrach squezzes the guys hands to the glass and the pieces of glass are all over the guys hands and he bleeds. And i didnt get the part in the end when Dr. Mannhattan did something to Rorscrach.  Did Mannhattan kill him or just teleported him to Niteowls shi or at New York?  Well besides that, those were some of the reasons why Rorschrach is my favorite charcter in this novel. 

As for Dr. Mannahttan, he is the most different out of everyone in the novel because he is the only one with powers.  He has powers that are godlike.  He is immortal, can see threw the future, can increase his size, and other amazing powers.  Its an shame that he cant find no piece on earth with the humans.  Cant find an love because he doesnt age like when he had an girlfriend before he met Silk Spectre and the girlfriend was getting old so he decides to date Spectre and the girlfriend leaves him. 

Niteowl is like the brains of the team with all that high tech gear like that ship and those goggles.  He falls in love with Silk Spectre in the end of the novel and has an relationship with her. 

Silk Spectre has dated like two people in the novel.  Dr. Mannhattan and Niteowl.  She had an mom who got raped by the Comedian for whatever reason.  And the wierd thing is, Silk Spectre father is the Comedian which I dont think they have nothing in common.  But she is kinda hot in the movie that I'm dying to see. 

As for Ozymandia, it turns out to be that he is behind the murder of the Comedian and the exile of Dr. Mannhattan.  He did all this so he can kill everyone in New York city to prevent war world three from happening which it work but I find an little strange.  I dont get when an guy who shoots an lady that was with Andrian and beats him and asking questions like who sent him and all that, then the killer kills himself by eating poison.  Who sent the killer after Andrian? 

I thought the novel was pretty good even though it had parts that are kinda wierd to me.  But I still give this novel an 5 out of 5.  I cant wait untill i see the movie.

Doom is in his castle in Latveria where he is in his sleep, all of the sudden, Nightmare, an demon that goes around and intrupts peoples dreams and sends them to his realm which is something like and nightmare.  And when Doom wakes up, he gets angry and trys to get  some guy to make an device to get Ghost Rider and Wolverine in the realm of Nightmare to help him to defeat Nightmare for good.  And when Wolverine discovers that he is in the realm because of Doom, he stabs Ghost Rider and all of a sudden, everything goes wrong because that hellfire and adamantium have some kind of wierd reaction when they meet for whatever reason.  And Doom's plan fails and then wakes up and finds the dude who was helping him dead.  I think its an ok issue.  It features some of mine favorite charcters of all time.  So I'll give this an 4 out of 5.

Lois Lane wants Clark to stay home from work because he gets these new eletrical/magnetic powers.  While that happens, some ram/goat creature goes beserk in the beloved city of Metropolis.  And when Kent finds out about the creature is on an rampage threw the city, Superman goes after the creature and they have an fight all over the city.  This fight kind of lasted long until all an sudden, Superman with his new powers blackouts the whole city of Metropolis.  Now I find it kinda wierd that Superman gets these new powers.  I mean I dont think that Superman should get these powers because I just think that it doesnt go with Supes like it doesnt seem like an good thing.  So I'll give this an two out of five.
