Watchmen (Alan Moore)

"Watchmen" by Alan Moore is a graphic novel that reimagines the superhero genre in a gritty, complex world.

With layered storytelling and morally ambiguous characters, it challenges traditional notions of justice and explores the consequences of wielding extraordinary power in a flawed, real-world setting.
