J. Michael StraczynskiIf thereโs any other message in this to readers, itโs in these two characters as icons of hope, that it doesnโt make any difference where you come from, or where you went to school, or who you are, thereโs hope. That a kid from Jersey with Superman as the icon that kept him alive for years would one day end up writing the character is as absoutely unlikely as it is utterly inevitable. And if thatโs true for me, itโs true for you, if you follow your dreams and your passions in full flight. Donโt give up. No Limits. Itโs never too late to learn to fly.

J. Michael StraczynskiAnyone who sets foot into the Watchmen universe and isn't just a little nervous should be given a few days of electroshock therapy.
