And I prefer the ending to GIANT SQUID FROM NOWHERE!!!!


You completely missed the point. The whole genius of Watchmen is that it subverts the cleanness of comic books. It makes the costumed hero a bodily being, including fetishes and kinks as part of it. And the ending is SUPPOSED to be bodily and messy and unpleasant! And IT DIDN'T COME OUT OF NOWHERE, DAMMIT!!! (Yes. I did. That was me using multiple exclamation marks. AND caps. Doesn't happen often, but I felt he occasion called for it.)
