The history of DC's Watchmen is as interesting as the comic itself. Originally created by Alan Moore, Dave Gibbons, and John Higgins, the original comic series ran from 1986 to 1987 and was meant to serve as a one-off deconstruction of the superhero genre. Set in an alternate history that saw superheroes win the Vietnam War for the US, the world finds itself on the brink of another cataclysmic war. But during the middle of all this, a superhero enlisted by the government is murdered, prompting a group of vigilantes to don their masks once again to investigate, despite their practice being outlawed.
