well, just did some basic "brad bird watchmen" googling:

http://www.michaelbarrier.com/Interviews/Bird/Bird_Interview.htm

He's directly confronted with both the Fantastic Four and Watchmen 
references.  And dismisses them by saying he's more of a "Peanuts" guy 
than a "Whoeverman" guy.

The maximum he goes is to acknowledge he's heard of Watchmen before and 
is glad that The Incredibles is compared with something that good.  He 
mentions the super-heroes retirement, but that's all.  No mention to the 
"no cape", secret Island or huge squid attack on a city.
