No work of substance?

So…he didn't use "a wrist watch Spidey Signal" in the comics?

The one in the comics comes from his belt, not his wrist.

Whatever the case:

Go watch Peter Jackson's Braindead/Dead Alive!

Yep. Can't argue any of that, in terms of seeming and should.

Gilliam didn't write that script, and he came down to "this is unfilmable".

I keep wondering if they'll go for Silvermane.

Considering Fisk's last words, the establishment of Nuke…

And an overweight nerd with an awkward nickname!

Wage the war on organized crime
Sneak attacks, repel down the rocks behind the line
Some people risk to employ me
Some people live to destroy me
Oh, either way they die
They die

All I can think is, "Well, his friend is being not just selfish, but selfish with a death wish…so I'm not sure 'whiny' is really the right call here."

I think there's some really solid stuff in there, though, like #191 ("Roulette") springs to mind

Kang, your joyous schadenfreude at the drubbing of the one responsible for Watchmen warms the cockles of my jaded, angry heart that has been ranting about that shit for the last seven years.

I can't be mad at someone for linking to The Quietus.

Well, yeah. I mean, there are others. I also like Sin City, for instance.

Thought I still had the bookmark, but apparently I don't, unfortunately.

The inevitability of the strong feelings attached—everyone's compensating for everyone else.

To my eternal sadness, it seems to be around 50/50 on Watchmen.

If I were one to lose sleep over such things, I might lose sleep over the "might've been" that was "no one trying to do it at all" and/or gilliam-like conclusions.
