>creators consent

who cares? DC isn't going to be around by this time next year so let them ruin any good thing they ever had which is pretty much just this

Watchmen is overrated

>We must protect Alan Moore from having his characters repurposed without his permission

?

Who gives a fuck about what Moore thinks?

FUCKING DC

Stop reading superhero comics.

An enjoyable story.

>without the creators consent

Yeah, I wonder what Steve Ditko thinks about all this.

Fuck you, your old wizard wand has gone limp

Rasputin really let himself go.

I’m sure if Lewis Carroll, L. Frank Baum, and J.M. Barrie were still alive, they would have been positively thrilled with what Moore did with their characters in Lost Girls.

Moore could have used his own money and produced watchmen.Instead he took DC's money and gave them the rights to the characters. So he cant really complain

I can tell you he doesn't have a high opinion of it.

It's absolute schlock.
People need to lighten the fuck up and enjoy it for what it is.
Geoff Johns doing the sequel to Watchmen. With mainline DC characters. Sounds like a car crash into a trainwreck. Of course I wanna check it out.

>le entertaining trainwreck meme
End yourself.

If anyone would enjoy a good rape, it is Alan Moore.

>DC isn't going to be around by this time next year
?

Don’t pay much attention to him, it’s just Ladderbro trying to start company wars

...

He's been at this for a while now

>le
Please just stay on reddit

they've lost an insane amount of money and it's only going to get worse with their two massive box office bombs this year and the failure of their streaming site

>need "creators" consent to use Elseworld versions of characters they have the rights to

What did OP mean by this?

kek

Fuck your sacred cow bullshit.

>being a casual that believes watchmen depends on Charlston

He would side with moore

That those characters were not elseworld versions of characters. something corporate shills and johnsfags fail to understand. but beyond that it's just a corporated mandated even in the hands of a moron.

Johns is an extremely ignorant person that writes for brainlets.

This is my biggest issue. It's possible to tell a sequel to watchman. Personally i don't think it should have one but this garbage was not the way to do it.

Even moore speculated about a sequel back in the 80's, no one aside from moore would be mad if Gaiman or Morrison were behind this (no one would anyway) the point isnt a watchmen sequel, it's a sub-par product milking the IP, and how offensive is ot the readers that Johns keeps pretending this was his idea instead of Warner's and he is just doing it for money and ego.

Implying Moore created watchmen characters and not just reskined Charlston stuff.

A link? Pretty please

Dumb casual.

my boy

This doesn't change anything about the original, if you don't like it just don't read it.

Blind Moore worshipping faggot

This

You are a wikipedia faggot that doesnt know shit about watchmen or charlton characters.

>implying I was the same user

What an absolutely perfect costume, now done away with because of Bendis. I hate trunktards.

DC has been raping Superman for years though

That's Warner Brothers losing money not DC. Learn how corporate structures work ffs.

That's WB losing money on DC

They aren't going to want to keep it around if it keeps draining money and they won't survive a week on their own

Wonder Woman was a box office bomb? Damn...

DC's actually one of the things keeping WB afloat amidst their flops (not limited to DC movies). It's their most profitable branch mainly thanks to merch.

I'm extremely ashamed of this, but I liked the movie. But, I was like 12 or 13 when it came out.

Though I always liked the idea of a superheroes league composed by famous litterature or cinema fictionnal characters

can we get a storytime?

>Moore once offhandedly mentioned that he feels like Johns is browsing through his older work for shit that'll stick
>Johns responds by aping Watchmen in style but fucking up the substance

Moore likes rape

>fanfiction of characters from authors that have been dead for at least a century that in no way tries to pass itself off as an official sequel for any of them

vs.

>officially sanctioned sequel by the publisher that is only able to make it because they swindled the character rights from the original creators through a loophole in a contract and continue to do so despite the creators' obvious misgivings

Anyone who says LXG is exactly like Doomsday Clock is a mouth-breathing retard.

He didn't give them the rights to the characters, he published under DC for what was supposed to be a limited time and would have retained the character rights but DC took advantage of a loophole that allowed them to keep the rights indefinitely. They also swindled Moore and Gibbons out of further money by calling merchandise "promotional material"

>Gone limp
>managed to delay Doomsday Clock's full release by at least a year

He's stronger than ever it seems.

...

DC is a tiny part of Time Warner you fucking moron and it's not going anywhere.

It's not costing them money you retard, that isn't how it works. It owns the licenses that it turns into films, overall those licenses have brought in far more money than they have ever cost by orders of magnitude. It is literally unfathomable that a company would willingly relinquish the rights to just Batman let alone anything else. Are you literally fucking 7 years old or something?

>I'm extremely ashamed of this
Are you sure you're not 12 now? Just like what you like

>using public domain characters are the same as stealing from your top writer ever

>top-writer ever

>Watchmen, V for Vendetta and Killing Joke perpetually best sellers for decades

>Sales = quality

>Star Wars The Force Awakens is the highest grossing movie
>JJ Abrams is America's top-director

It's amazing how you undustry faggots are so deluded that you actually think Moore isnt great.

...

have you ever seen his scripts? dude should literally just be writing novels.

hes a good writer (a complete asshole of a person based on his interviews and stories of him), but nothing of his work should make him as fucking revered and untouchable as everyone treats him.

Lemme guess, you worship Geoff Johns and Mark Waid.

it's just funny that no one at DC had the balls to question Johns at all
like "bro, you write some fun action stories, but there's a reason no other writer ever would want to do a sequel to one of the most revered and popular works the medium has ever produced"

The idea started at WB, just like new52, Johns is just the yes sir guy that loves to be at the center of attention and to be paid for cleaning toilets.

>To be fair, you have to have a very high IQ to understand Watchmen.
>If you liked the movie you didnt understand the "book"
>""""graphic novel"""
>the most important entry in the history of the medium
>a brilliant deconstruction of the genre
>Give the rights back to Moore, it would be the rightful thing to do
>le loophole

>>If you liked the movie you didnt understand the "book"

That shit is said by the same faggots that defend johns.

>using public domain characters are the same as using characters you rightfully own

fixed

I never said Moore isn't great, just that he isn't the best
Both are meh with a few exceptions

It's entirely Alan Moore's fault.

He could have gone to Darkhorse and maintained ownership of his Donut-Steel characters.

Instead, he agreed that he would get ownership if the series ever left publication. And guess what happened.

DC went full jew and utilized a loophole? I think Moore even said he would be fine to right another story set in the Watchmen universe as long as he and Gibbons got the rights back but DC didn't really do anything until around the time of Before Watchmen and by that time they had already burned the bridge.

>sequel to a self contained story that could easily be ignored
>every issue so far has been a top seller
>now comes out every other month so it's even easier to ignore
>moorefags still want to complain about it

>every issue so far has been a top seller
Are you trying to imply that means it's good?

I sorry but why are we pretending John's elseworld fanfic suddenly ruins the original Watchmen?

>failure of their streaming site
it hasn't even launched yet, retard

...

Comics have no artistic merit and Marvel does this exact same shit too (see: Old Man Logan).

What else is there to say?
You buy shit from companies who exist to calculate the exact ratio of baggage something of worth can carry before it starts making less money overall; you don't get to fucking complain.

That's not Before Watchmen.

You should warn people about that edge, son. Someone could get hurt.

>I-It's okay when Moore writes lesbian porn comics that feature underage girls, it's artistic and so creative!!

Wait, who is that girl in the mirror with Hyde?
