Watchmen: Motion Comic (Season 1)

Watchmen: Motion Comic (2008) is an animated adaptation of Alan Moore and Dave Gibbons' graphic novel you can watch online on iFILM. Director Jake S. Hughes converted all 12 chapters into 12 episodes; Tom Stechschulte voices every character — heroes, villains, and bystanders — alone.

It's an alternate 1985: Nixon is still in office, the Cold War is weeks from tipping over. When a retired superhero known as the Comedian turns up dead, the outlawed vigilante Rorschach starts pulling at threads and finds a conspiracy that reaches back decades through the history of every masked operative who ever worked in America. Moore built his original comic around one blunt question: who holds the people who call themselves heroes accountable? The motion-comic format preserves every panel of Gibbons' artwork while adding movement and Stechschulte's remarkable range. Stream Watchmen: Motion Comic online on iFILM.
