Good grief, will this movie come out already?! I read the graphic novel and wasn't that impressed. It was good, but not as good as I thought it would be. Oh well, I'm more excited about the film which I'll probably go see opening night. (via Watchmen)

Alan Moore is a god. That's all there is to it. He was the first and best to 'explode' the superhero myth by bringing it poetically and painfully into a 'real' world, and the only thing as good as this story is Dave Gibbons' exquisite, precise art. Published as a 12-issue mini, but really, TRULY, a novel, it's the best of its kind, bar none.

A fantastic read! This is the book that introduced me to the world of graphic novels. I love the story the pictures and the movie.

My son is reading this and I am going to snag it when he's done, great story line and incredible graphics throughout the book. I love the chapter pages. (via www.amazon.com)

So I gave into all the hype (and controversy) surrounding the movie and bought a copy. It presents a solid picture of a world with super heroes struggling with their limitations and demons while dealing with a world made anxious by increasing cold world hostilities. I love how the " Tale of the Black freighter" is added to the mix yet doesn't distract the from the main plot. I'm really looking forward to the film now.

this is a great comic book, for me it set a new standard. worth reading, especially before the film comes out.

This Hugo Award-winning graphic novel chronicles the fall from grace of a group of super-heroes plagued by all-too-human failings. Along the way, the concept of the super-hero is dissected as the heroes are stalked by an unknown assassin. (via robmania.com)

One of the greatest comics of all time.

A must-read for anyone planning on seeing the soon-to-be-released feature film.
