quis custodiet ipsos custodes?

Just wanted to point you all to this article.
All I have to say (other than, "It's about damn time!") is that it couldn't have happened to a better book. If you've never read Watchmen, you really, really should. Now.
Not only is it a damn fine story told with awesome prowess both in the writing (I want T-shirts with half the lines of the book quoted on them) and art departments (I want many of the panels blown up and framed on my wall), but it one of the few truly influential books of the last two decades. If you're one of those people who likes to read 'important' books, then there's really no reason you shouldn't have read it by now.
Go on then.

I've the issue, but have not made it to the article yet, so I didn't read the link you linked to as not to spoil it.
Glad that the kinks have been worked out, and that you're back!
I suggest you read Watchmen before you read the articles. Neither are particularly spoilerrific (well, the sidebar in the EW article about Watchmen's influence on Lost contains a pretty large spoiler, so stay clear), but they're best read after you're done with the book.
And I'm glad to be back :-)
