Whatcha Readin’?

by Adam Huddleston

I’m currently enjoying working my way through the graphic novel, “Watchmen”. If I recall correctly, this is the first of its kind that I’ve read. It takes a little getting used to (looking at the drawings in each panel as well as the writing), but it is well worth it.

Without giving too much away, “Watchmen” deals with the search for an individual that is murdering costumed heroes from the early-to-mid nineteen hundreds (basically, who watches over those that watch over us?). The story begins with a bang, but then meanders about for a few chapters. I’m about halfway through the story now and it is really starting to pick up its pace.

If you’re a fan of the fantasy/sci-fi genre, comic books, and/or graphic novels, I highly recommend giving “Watchmen” a try.
