Before ' output Watchmen film, the only publication on the Italian market exclusively devoted to the masterpiece of Moore and Gibbons was the remarkable volume of Lavieri Watchmen after 20 years. The book, conceived and edited by smoky man under the supervision of Sergio Nazzaro, presents 12 interesting essays that delve into the issues contained within the chapters, and missed two long author interviews, an article colorist John Higgins and a gallery with original designs made for the occasion by the authors of the first order of Italian and international scene.
Although the quality of the work is erratic (to Giromini superb, a bit 'hazy to Emanuela Gatto and Sergio Brancato), the volume should be purchased for very interesting analysis on the characters Link Yaco Charlton from which the heroes of Watchmen and mini-treaty Alessandro Nocera that allows us to understand how it has evolved up to the figure of the superhero today.

Released for Sandwiches, Watching the Watchmen is an interesting "behind the scenes in which English is not only the designer talks about his adventure, but also allows us to rummage in his archives that still all materials used during the preparation of the series.
This is a book of great interest and very stylish package, but sin that Gibbons merely show without going into the reasons for his choices. If it had been written together with his friend Alan Moore this book would probably have been titled Understanding Watchmen and today we work and able to move as more of the same comic. Turning to the book of
