First of all, it’s January. There is no need to be making Watchmen movie Halloween costumes, except as a crew mockery of all Moore holds dear. Second, HOLY GOD THESE THINGS ARE TERRIBLE. Third, can you imagine some poor kid knocking on Moore’s door in one of these things on Halloween? Fourth, do you think they’ll let Moore write comics from jail after he murders a child? Thanks to TR contributor Chris Cummins for the tip. (Via Watchmen Comic Movie)
About The Author
Robert Bricken is one of the original co-founders of the site formerly known as Topless Robot, and its first editor-in-chief, serving from 2008-12. He brought the site to prominence with “nerd news, humor and self-loathing” as its motto, raising it from total internet obscurity to a readership in the millions, with help from his savage “FAQ” movie reviews and Fan Fiction Fridays. Under his tenure Topless Robot was covered by Gawker, Wired, Defamer, New York magazine, ABC News, and others, and his articles have been praised by Roger Ebert, Avengers actor Clark Gregg, comedian and The Daily Show correspondent John Hodgman, the stars of Mystery Science Theater 3000 and Rifftrax, and others. He is currently the managing editor of io9.com. Despite decades as both an amateur and professional nerd, he continues to be completely unprepared for either the zombie apocalypse or the robot uprising.
