Following our visit to London Super Comic Con 2013 a couple of weeks back – we thought it was time for a giveaway from the Comics Anonymous gang……

The deep questions set out by Jonathan Osterman aka Dr Manhattan in issue #1 (reviewed here) were a welcome surprise from the standout Before Watchmen release but it was interesting to see if the next issue could follow-up on its success.

The latest addition to the Before Watchmen releases features Dr Manhattan and if I’m honest, given the relatively so-so vibe I’ve got from the other releases….I wasn’t holding up much hope for this title.

We’re now five weeks into DC’s Before Watchmen series and the world hasn’t cracked in two like some expected. I reviewed Minutemen #1 three weeks ago, commenting that it was an OK comic that showed some promise in future issues once it gets passed that set-up phase. Since then we’ve seen #1s of Silk Spector, The Comedian and Nite Owl, each of which have also been average with only a couple of real talking points between them. So what, if anything, can Ozymandias do to stand out from the crowd?

So here’s a difficult one – how do you write a review of a Before Watchmen comic without treading the same ground as everyone else on the internet? Reading the comic, let alone writing about it, appears to be sacrilege in some peoples eyes, so taking sides on the argument for having these books released is going to upset someone somewhere. At the end of the day, I just want to look at this as a comic – one single issue, outside everything else. So kicking things off, this week saw the release of Minuteman #1, written and drawn by Darwyn Cooke.
