    Oh so the end of the joke is “but doctor - i am already in omelas” because the child is the person the citizens of omelas are forcing to suffer so they can have their utopia.

    Kind of funny, but i didn’t know the watchmen thing. I hate fucking comics and superhero garbage. Ugh

      I don't like superheroes but the original Watchmen graphic novel was a critique of super hero stories written by an anarchist. The medium of comics has plenty of slop but Watchmen effectively utilizes the art form to tell a story that really works as a comic.
