Watchmen and D&D Alignments

One really likes Watchmen the book, created by the Master Alan Moore, but One also appreciates (very much) the movie lovingly crafted by the director Zach Snyder


Everyone was a Villain, except maybe the Nite Owls. And from the vision of Villainy, a world brought back from Nuclear Armageddon - a world at peace finally. Not because of superheroes. Because of Villains. How many saved? The World

  1. Here I have to disagree. The squid wasn't evil in any sense. It was true neutral, even more so than Dr. Manhattan. It was engineered to be psychic, it was teleported, and the shock of doing that to it caused it to lash out and kill everything around it... accidentally.
    The squid is the victim in the story.

  2. White Skull,

    You know, if One remembers the story, the process of teleportation killed whatever went through, and it was the squid's psychic death cry that was the death of the city. So it was chaotic in it's appearance and action, not by it's own intent. You are right though - that is a weak point in the graphic. All the other characters had their actions and motivations described. The Squid IS a victim.

    Thank you,
    -Lord Malignance
