No, Mr. Incredible notices Gazerbeam going missing in a newspaper early 
on and even comment it with Frozone while in the car.  It does not take 
front stage, but is acknowledged to be happening way before the story 
starts.

BTW, masked vigilantes killing in Watchmen is just a suggested plot by 
Rorschach to explain The Comedian's death.  He is truly paranoid.  No 
previous such killings before nor after, except "career" incidents in 
older times, like Dollar Bill's being shot by criminals after the cape 
gets entangled in a door, just as other such examples of similar 
old-time deaths in The Incredibles.  The Incredibles diverged here by 
making the suggested plot to be real, just like making supers truly supers.
