Why didn't he just take everyone's nukes away?
Bravo
Even Israel?!
Why didn't he just turn the blonde guy into a meat salad like everyone else?
>>220997667He calculated and they'd have a good number of particles if they blew up.
>>220997667He was bored
>>220997667He's a medical doctor, not a rocket scientist
>>220997667Limited imagination. He didn’t have a Faustian fight against fate when he could easily choose to have one
>>220997667Because he's FED UP WITH THIS WORLD
>>220997667>>220997705Cause the point is having a bunch of power is worthless if you're a giant pussy faggot. Rorschach was a Manlet and he wasmore powerful than Manhattan cause he actually had a pair of balls that weren't in his girlfriend's purse.
>>220997667The plot of Watchmen™ was conceived by Alan Moore to explicitly be a critique of the Reagan Era arms buildup and confrontation with the Soviet Union. It has not aged well.
>>220997667It wouldn't matter anyway. Humanity will just keep finding new ways to destroy itself even if he used his power to control things. Broken fucking society.
>>220997667Or kill the ones threatening
>>220997754This would make sense. Except dr. Manhattan has multiple balls. He can have one set in his gf's purse and other ones being CBT'd in the next room.
>>220997667He just didn't give a fuck.
>>220997667He's not a god, his powers have limits, he can make mistakes and he can't be everywhere at once.There's a risk he would trigger some sort of alert which leads to a nuclear exchange while in the process of going around finding all the nukes and vanishing or disabling them.
>>220997754>Principles gets you killed, be a pussy/hypocrite, live longerterrible moral for a story.
>>220997705By the time he realized what was going on it was too late.
He couldn't even beat a sexual misconduct allegation
>>220997692Antisemitism!
>>220997667he just didn't care
He's tired of being entangled in subhumans affairs or some shit like that.
>>220997667They would just build more or find some other way to kill each other.
>>220997705Quentin amused him for the first time in years with the tachyon shenanigans
>>220997705Because Ozy is based. He managed to kill trillions to save gorillions. All based on facts and logic!
>>221000159>Cowards die many times before their deaths; the valiant never taste of death but once.Maybe learn how to read between the lines, anon.
>>221000159Rorschach, or rather The Comedian since he's the real central character, idea will live on through his notebook being published.
the comedian is a really cool character and if moore wasnt such a retarded faggot he could have done the whole disillusionment of the american dream/anti government/etc etc just with him and his story and it would have been way less homo and whinny liberal-y
>>220997667He should have made everyone's pants disappear. Who could be taken seriously as a despot with their wang hanging out?
>>221000412thats right
>>221000559cept he didnt lmao, the notebook means shit goes back to square 1
>>220997667>"You can't change human nature."I feel like I'm taking crazy pills!
>>220997782It was bad when it released because Moore is a fucking loser who is pissed that he never made anything more successful than comics and he hates comics
why didnt he limit test his powers and instantly destroy the universe in order to recreate it.
>>221003494i have some news for you, anon
>>220997667>Why didn't he just take everyone's nukes away?he didn't care
He wasn't black in that story
They literally spelled it out, Manhatten was capable of wipe out 99% of nukes, but the lasting 1% would still wipe out the planet.Jesus, do you skibidi rizzlers are off your phone for 1 second??
>>221003775he cared enough to kill truth exists man
>>220997667He's not omniscient, he didn't know where the nukes were. I think in the comic he says that he could try to catch them after they're launched but he'd probably miss some and that wold still cause devastation, or something like that.Also he was already quite detached from humanity by the time the story begins and repeatedly says things like "a living and dead body have the same number of particles" and "the existence of life is a highly overrated phenomenon". He didn't really care to stop it until Laurie convinced him on Mars.
>>221003963>be Manhattan>teleport around>dismantle nukes payload when no one is watchingHe was just lazy.
>>221003989>he cared enough to killonly after figuring out silk's mother fell in love with the guy who tried to rape herhe can manipulate atoms, but he can't create ironyso he needs to keep humans alive to lmao at them
