    About this ebook

    Who watches the watchmen, indeed. The title of both the comic miniseries in the mid-1980s, and the big budget movie in the new millennium, when returned to the context of its source, is rather ironic in the context of ideas. And zeitgeist.
    What both the comic writer and the film makers accomplished by telling this story is to tip their hand. With relatively simple analysis, we can achieve a frightening glimpse of how they see the world and what they're willing to do in pursuit of the Utopia they envision.

I’d post some stories online and that’s when I begin to gain an audience of family, friends, co workers as well as strangers. Alot would encourage me to get my words published. And from that I present to you The Minds Of.................
