About this ebook

A NEW YORK TIMES Bestseller!

Considered the greatest graphic novel in the history of the medium, the Hugo Award-winning story chronicles the fall from grace of a group of superheroes plagued by all-too-human failings. Along the way, the concept of the superhero is dissected as an unknown assassin stalks the erstwhile heroes.

This edition of WATCHMEN, the groundbreaking series from Alan Moore, the award-winning writer of V FOR VENDETTA and BATMAN: THE KILLING JOKE, and Dave Gibbons, the artist of GREEN LANTERN, features the high-quality, recolored pages found in WATCHMEN: THE ABSOLUTE EDITION with sketches, never-before-seen extra bonus materials and a new introduction by Dave Gibbons.

I love watchmen. Just purchase the movie. So I figure why not read the uncut story. But boy is it difficult. I usually don't read books on my phone but I figure this is the most convenient way. I thought wrong you have to continuously pinch and zoom each window to make sure you're reading all the scans correctly. I personally wouldn't recommend it unless you own a tablet.

The downloadable PDF is of a very poor quality. The comic has a large white boarder that is uneven. It is like a 4x6 image in the right hand corner of 8x11 background. The image quality is low also. To even read the bubbles the image needs to be viewed at 2x. When viewed at a readable size the image is fuzzy. I didn't expect hard copy quality, but proper formatting and decent resolution is not too much to expect.
