Daily Photo #455

In honour of seeing the screen adaptation of Watchmen, here is one of the guiding lights behind what is arguably among the greatest pieces of literature the world has ever known.

Dave Gibbons
, a wonderful chap and too talented for words. Oh yeah, I enjoyed the movie a great deal. It's like a three hour love letter to Alan Moore. Sadly, he will probably never see it.

Glad to hear you enjoyed it mate. It had a lot more depth to it than I expected. Looking forward to that director's cut already!
Dave Gibbons is such a nice guy. Wish I'd got a picture with him too. If only we had a photographic document of our afternoon with Alan Moore...

Also glad to hear you enjoyed it. D & I can't wait to see the extra-long director's cut. If nothing else to see all the details we missed first round.

Every actor was so amazing. One thing we loved was how Crudup played Dr. Manhattan. With just a hint of sadness in his voice. I want to see it again already!
