Watchmen as Literature: A Critical Study of the Graphic Novel

Watchmen has been hailed as the quintessential graphic novel and has spawned a body of literary criticism since its 1986 initial appearance in installments. This work explores the graphic novelâ€™s reception in both popular and scholarly arenas and how the conceptual relationship between images and words affects the reading experience. Other topics include heroism as a stereotype, the heroâ€™s journey, the role of the narrator, and the way in which the graphic layout manipulates the readerâ€™s perception of time and space.
