In case there were still any lingering doubts, showrunner Damon Lindelof has confirmed that the upcoming Watchmen TV series is a contemporary continuation of the comics, as he revealed a whole lot of plot details for the show.
It’s not easy covering the San Diego Comic-Con, and I don’t just mean that because the show is a gargantuan hive of activity that is overflowing with cosplayers, panels and enough merch to make your wallet scream. No pals, what’s tough about covering all the news coming out of the premiere pop culture show of the year is that I’m not there, dammit.
Who watches the Watchmen? Well, us actually as we check out the first full trailer for HBO's long-awaited comic book TV series.
HBO has revealed a first glimpse at what we can expect from their high-profile Watchmen adaptation.

For all of its nihilistic themes, Watchmen ended with hope. Hope that a better future would rise one day, as the truth of Adrian “Ozymandias” Veidt’s attempts to force a peaceful coexistence between the people of Earth by uniting them against a new menace, would be revealed by the deceased Rorscharch. That peace did come. It just didn’t last very long at all.
Lost and The Leftovers screenwriter Damon Lindelof is currently adapting the classic Alan Moore comic book series Watchmen for HBO. He hopes that the subversive nature of the source material will allow him to make a "dangerous" TV series for these dangerous times.
At its core, DC’s upcoming crossover between its primary heroes and those of the Watchmen universe, is a clash that involves the ideas of hope colliding with that of pessimism. It’s an ideal match-up, one which shines a spotlight on DC’s recent efforts to restore their heroes towards a brighter status quo in the wake of last year’s Rebirth event, against the more dystopian themes created by writer Alan Moore and artist Dave Gibbons in Watchmen.
