  Time’s 100 Best Novels

  17 Oct 2005

  Seeing Alan Moore’s Watchmen on Time’s 100 Best Novels list, the only comic book to have made it, makes me very happy, and affirms what I’ve been saying ever since I first read that book years ago: Watchmen isn’t just the best graphic novel ever written, it’s also one of the best novels.

  The poster on the left is a fan-made rendering of their dream cast for the upcoming Watchmen movie. I’ve already made up my mind that the movie will never, ever surpass the book (because then it’d be, well, the best movie of all time, wouldn’t it?) but I can’t help but be excited nonetheless. If for nothing else than it’ll convince more people to read this masterpiece.

     Rorschach is supposedly Edward Norton, I think. John Cusack is The Owl and Mel Gibson is The Comedian hehe. Pretty good cast actually.

     Watchmen is definitely on my top 100 – look forward for more news on the movie. Too bad that Aronofsky dropped out — but let’s hope for the best.
