Is this like the Minutemen, where they're meant to look like a bunch of schlubs in home-made costumes?

Which is completely fine, don't get me wrong!

It's just that...i mean, you don't really "HAVE TO" do a background check on the Watchmen characters in order to understand the whole thing but from my understanding, people tend to do that either way, cause...you know, shit is just interesting, the origin of Moore's whole creative process and all.

Of course, you're more likely to see people bring up the characters from the Charlton Comics, but if you know your shit, you will quickly connect the dots to the JSA.

There've been reboots and retcons but one of the reasons the JSA had to quit is because they were forced to unmask and reveal their identity.

And i reckon now you quickly guessed where i'm going with this... :3

@Doomsday8888 - Yeah, but Dan Dreiberg looks a lot less refined than Ted Kord, so the Minutemen being schlubby wasn't going to be reflective as a one-to-one of the JSA. Even then, some of the book's commentary is related to Ditko's objectivism so it felt like a pretty clear repurposing of the Charlton comics since Moore wasn't allowed to use them (the irony being that they wound up being more popular), as opposed to DC's superhero lineup.

They were meant to be an alterate version of the Charlton Comics!
But since Moore wanted to kill some of em, DC "proposed" to make new ones.

But Moore was inspired by multiple DC characters, in terms of design, plot points etc...

Why do you think the concept of "Legacy" is so strong in Watchmen?
It all comes back to the JSA in more than one way.

What year is this supposed to be taking place, after crisis, or before, maybe way before from the look.

@gremlin22 - After. This isnt the Arrowverse anyways so it doesnt really matter.

Haven't had a chance to watch any of the DC Universe shows, but at the very least they've turned out some very good costumes.

It looks good and judging from the set pics it would be logical to conclude that said scene takes place when the JSA HQ is raided as Starman fights back the villains. AKA the show's prologue.

Looks okay, but it is possibly another example of something that looks a lot cooler in artwork than in real life. Better views of this might change my mind. I have to give them points for going for comic accuracy.

The DC Universe costumes never fail to impress.

And no, Raven and Starfire's clothes are not "costumes".
