This is a book that's really only for fans of the Watchmen comic. Think of it the same way as a DVD bonus disc of extras.
If you liked Watchmen and want to learn more about its creation, this is a nice big coffee-table book at a very good price.

I ordered one just to go with my copy of watchmen, will read it and see if it's any good.

So this isn't the actual graphic novel but a companion to it that discusses the making etc?

This book is fantastic. It's HUGE and covers so much of the making and designing of the graphic novel, fascinating stuff for fans of Watchmen or anyone interested in art and design. I bought one at double the price and it was still a massive bargain. HEAT!

Picked this up today in the Windsor branch. Looks great. Hefty! Will go as a nice companion piece to the graphic novel (I got bundled with the US Watchmen collectors/Ultimate edition Blu-Ray set).
