Red Storm Rising is indeed pretty damn good. I've never gotten around to dragging myself through any of his other books though.

I liked V for Vendetta (although the fight at the end was badly done) so the prequel should be good....

He was being sarcastic.

Besides, very well played Sent.
V for Vendetta was good.
I thought it was very good even, but their turning down of the Anarchy elements was somewhat annoying.

It was a joke. W is a biography of George W Bush.

Edit: and yes, what Dansariki said about them cutting the anarchism.

Danke, danke.
Small wonder he refuses to deal with his adaptions.
Watchmen looks incredibly good though.
Can't wait to read the graphic novel.

Finally, they are going to explain that the war was indeed a mistake.

Dramatic-style, it looks like.
