   Books Read in 2016 (2,041) No current Talk conversations about this book.   ) alrajul | Jun 1, 2023 |   ) freixas | Mar 31, 2023 | The Silk Spectre part was better then I thought too. Even though there isn't much to talk about with the Spectre, this comic showed you the human side to the daughter-mother relationship. I think my favorite part was just the talk between Laurie and her mother. It was also need to see the Watchman's universe take more on the hippie era. How it can all be about peace and love to stop what matters most to you. As for the controversy to this comic book: ignore it. To me I have no problem with other writers and artists taking the Watchmen characters. It's cool too see how things will turn out. Like I said before, I can't tell you the full verdict on the Before Watchmen experience because I have not read the other issues. As for this one if you like the Minutemen and the Silk Spectres then get this and if you don't then don't bother. As for me I wanted to read these two comics the most, so I was glad they came together. (  ) Ghost_Boy | Aug 25, 2022 | 5 stars, book of the year.

By the way, I gave it 4.5 out of 5, but as we all know, no fractions here on GoodReads. ( ) bloodravenlib | Aug 17, 2020 | no reviews | add a review

The controversial, long-awaited prequels to the best-selling graphic novel of all time are finally here: Before Watchmen! For over twenty years, the backstories of the now-iconic characters from Alan Moore and Dave Gibbons's landmark graphic novel had been the subject of much debate and theorizing. Now, DC Comics has assembled the greatest creators in the industry to further paint the world of Watchmen, starting with this volume starring Minutemen and Silk Spectre. The critically acclaimed and Eisner Award-winning creator of DC: The New Frontier, Darwyn Cooke, lends his talents to Minutemen. As the predecessor to the Watchmen, the Minutemen were assembled to fight against a world that had more and more rapidly begun to spin out of control. Can these heroes from completely different backgrounds and with completely different attitudes on crime come together? Or will they fall apart before they begin? Silk Spectre takes an introspective look at the Watchmen feature-player's struggles with her overbearing superhero mother and her scattered path toward taking the mantle of the Silk Spectre. With gorgeous art by co-writer and illustrator Amanda Conner (Power Girl, The Pro), Silk Spectre takes a very different perspective at the world of Before Watchmen. Collects Before Watchmen: Minutemen #1-6 and Before Watchmen: Silk Spectre # 1-4. No library descriptions found. |
