review 1: I'm glad I borrowed this book and didn't buy it. While it's pretty cool to see the early sketches and ideas, I felt like there were far too many page breakdowns done with marker. I find myslef flipping through more than half the book with no real interest. A comic artist might find more interest in it. I did like Mr. Gibbons memories of the events and creations, but it doesn't really shed too much light on the events. I must say however it really helps one to appreciate the art of this wonderful comic series. I wish I could get framed posters of the panels.
review 2: This book was very intriguing and gave many reasons to read on. It was a littlel embarassing to read on the train however because there are many nude shots of the big blue superhero, Dr. Manhattan.... more I think there are many concepts in this book that may be hard to comrehend and it would help to research the time period. Over all, I found that this book was very interesting and I liked the maany twists and turns of the plot. I would reccomend this book to anyone who wants to read a book that realy makes you think about life. However it was really difficult for me to read at times because of the strong themes of pervercity, also overall I found the book depressing. less
