Watchmen Babies

Until Fox pulls it from YouTube, here’s the appearance of Alan Moore, Art Spiegelman, and Dan Clowes on The Simpsons.

Edit- they pulled it! You can watch the episode over at Fox’s site if you’re willing to install their movie plugin, reboot, then view it again. Boo on Fox… let us watch our clips on the much easier to use YouTube!

    [...] More esoteric quips: Comics Critics wonders “What if there were a Watchmen video game?” Boingboing envisions “Watchpeanuts,” as if the comic book were drawn by Charles Schulz of “Peanuts” fame. The New Yorker magazine’s on-line cover contest reimagines its mascot Eustace Tilley as “Rorscach Tilley.” Someone Photoshopped the official poster into Swatchmen.
