Watchmen Visual Audio Book
‘Who is watching the watchmen?’ is seemingly a more important question now than when Alan Moore and David Gibbons did The Watchmen graphic novel back in the late 80s. A movie is on the way. The book is stacked at Chapters. Now iTunes is featuring a ‘motion comic’ of the story for download. It is essentially an audio book with accompanying visuals. The visuals move. Formally, it is a unabridged panel-by-panel dramatization of the story. I just paid $2 for the first 25 minutes (chapter one). It is an additional $18 for a season’s pass. It would be perfect for commuting. Reminds me — I must get an iPhone.
It would be awesome to see other books take up this form. Johnny Bunko? Or even a traditional business book.
