Fine.  The fact is that the plots are too damn similar and it should be 
listed there, encyclopedically.  The fact is that there's no reliable 
citation for the plot of Watchmen other than reading the work itself.

The fact is that I don't care anymore.  Let Disney rewrite history and 
Bird cite his own family inspirations for a plot that resembles so much 
that of a mature comic book classic...
