> None of the other heroes had powers. They were just highly skilled vigilantes kind of like Batman.
Um, no. Rorschach's mask is some kind of tech. Also, all of them have to be stronger and tougher than the average Mike Tyson. Tyson might be able to punch through stuff, but he'd likely break his hand. At least he'd have abrasions.
Then there's Ozymandias. His leaping in the Alaskan site implied flight. Plus he caught a bullet.
Apparently, as part of the 'cliche', their powers weren't explained.
> > The Comedian killed JFK because he was a government assassin and he was ordered to kill him. It's possible Dr. Manhattan knew about and just didn't care.
Yeah, I thought of those simplicities. Okay.
> Dr. Manhattan was kind of a prick some of the time...
As far as Moore could write a character like Manhattan, I understand such an entity. I identify. But as homeboy was born in '29, and obviously hadn't that much experience, he didn't know how to integrate it and all.
Even more so, while he saw order, he didn't understand it.
Scifi frauds. SF illuminates.
