No, the comic + the back matter in each issue is still the best way to experience watchmen

This.

And before someone shits their pants, the movie is a perfectly valid means of getting the story down as well. Not optimal, but much better than what its been made out to be.

Until the very end when it cocks-up every single character arc, at least.

Motion comics seem like such a shitty format. Same with guided view comics. It seems wrong to break down a comic page and only look at one panel at a time and not the page as a whole
>>
>>81400947
You say that as if Watchmen even attempted to resolve anyone's character arc in even the slightest.
Moore literally did not give a shit about what happened to the characters after Ozymandias' plan goes through, to the point that he doesn't even confirm whether anyone heard Rorschach's story.

I actually prefer the motion comic but the supplements at the end of every chapter are pretty essential

Depends on how it's done. The MGS and Halo motion comics are awesome, but by nature they beg to be animated.

He does. Rorschach doesn't even know what the fuck to do. Manhattan again becomes apathetic. Shit doesn't even affect Laurie and Dan that much, they're literally fucking on the spot. And Ozy is left unsure of the future. It's like nigga you didn't even read the comic.

Zombie Simpsons is sometimes capable of writing a joke. It's rare, but it happens.

Doc fucks off to space to create life, because he's once more fascinated with it from a completely alien perspective.
Ozy is busy with his plan to improve mankind.
Laurie embraces her origins and makes peace with her mom. The legacy she felt was forced on her now has a new meaning now that she knows who her father was.
Dan goes back to his childish fantasies now even more justified since keeping his secret means that he saved the world. He's also a lot less lonely.
Rorschach proved that not all problems could simply be reduced to black and white. Likely in a moment of clarity Kovacs decided to kill Rorschach because Rorschach couldn't stop pursuing his psychotic sense of justice. Whatever happens to his journal isn't truly relevant, since no matter wether it is revealed or not, or relevant at all or not, Ozy's utopia will inevitably end some day. And the sins he took upon himself in the name of peace will become simple mass murder.

Nigga are you dumb? The future is intentionally left in uncertain terms. Besides what the fuck does that have to do with anyone's character arc?

No, Grant Morrison hasn't written the definitive version of Watchmen yet.
