Gorgeous work, they are really shining through, the animation is delicious and so unexpected.

This was something that really took me off guard.
I saw "At Midnight, All the Agents..." on itunes for free.
I didn't think that the animation style they went with would work, but in a strange way, that's the only way I could see this.

Watched up to a brother to dragons so far, its pretty awesome.
Loved the translation that a fearfull simmetry and The abyss gazes also had.

the story progression could be slightly more rapid for me :P

but that really is great work, looks like them cutscenes from a cell-shaded game or something

Now that you say it it reminds me a lot of that Exit game on PSP, similar animation style (except the chars there are more silhouette). Nice way to make a copy-paste from the comics itself with minimal animation / drawing cost.
Oh also, heavily agree about how it could be a little faster.
Also it's great.
If I struggled to the end of my determination, to the end of my way of life with my followers, if the result is ruin, then this ruin is inevitable. Grieve. Shed tears. But you cannot regret.

This is really a great watch. I agree it could be a little faster, but I finally get to see what Watchmen is (yeah, too lazy to buy or DL the comics :P). The work the team did with the animations is great, and the voice actor is astonishing, fits perfectly.

Well, I'm more into Marvel comics, and I'd rather pay for comics with really nice graphics. I'm buying more or less all the Marvel Deluxe editions coming out in France. I already spent 10*29€ on these deluxe editions, so... :sadgoi:

ah ha!
euros make me sad.
I took a trip to Paris over the summer and thought I was spending a decent amount on a cd, but then someone converted the price in Euros to dollars for me.

No, I meant someone in the comics misunderstands Rorschach's name like that. I laughed.
