The Watchmen, in the way it was meant to be done.
The Watchmen, the premeire maxi-series of the 80's, written by Alan Moore and illustrated by Dave Gibbons was an ultrarealistic look at super-heroes, not a saviors, but rather as a group of semi-competent, dysfunctional individuals lead by a the wrong man who, by the end of the story becomes a mass murderer. Such stories were common with super-teams in the 1980s and much throught the early 1990s, but The Watchmen was a top shelf book and remains so to this day.
Anyway Something Awful pokes hilarious fun at the Watchmen. Here are some tidbits. The remainder is here, ten pages worth.
