Under The Hood is a Watchmen minutiae podcast by Hassan Otsmane-Elhaou and Kieran Shiach where they go through one page of Alan Moore, Dave Gibbons and John Higgins’ genre-defining comic and discuss, dissect and deliberate over meaning, theme and craft way more than we probably should.
This week we’re looking at the cover to Watchmen #1 and delving into the first page as we talk about the nine panel grid, vanishing points and three scraps of paper on the sidewalk.
