THE FANDOM ZONE 173: "A God Walks into Abar" Is Up!


"The way I experience time is unique, and for you, particularly infuriating."
-- Doctor Manhattan to Angela Abar, Watchmen: "A God Walks into Abar"

Hello again, everyone!  My co-host Jesse Jackson and I are back with another new episode of The Fandom Zone Podcast!  This time, we discuss "A God Walks into Abar", the eighth episode of the HBO series Watchmen, featuring Regina King as Angela Abar, Yahya Abdul-Mateen II as Doctor Manhattan, Jeremy Irons as Ozymandias, and Louis Gossett Jr. as Will Reeves!

In this episode, Jesse and I talk about things like Bootstrap Paradoxes and "the chicken or the egg" debate, Jeff Jensen writing Team Titans for DC Comics, Yahya Abdul-Mateen taking over as Doctor Manhattan, Lex Luthor not imagining that Superman would pretend to be human, Jon introducing himself to Angela in a Saigon bar, Angela thinking Jon is cosplaying Doctor Manhattan, the moment Jon falls in love with Angela, Doctor Manhattan passing his powers onto someone else, why it doesn't matter to Doctor Manhattan that he took over Calvin's body, young Jon and his father taking refuge in an English manor house during World War II, young Jon witnessing sex for the first time, Dave Gibbons working with the Watchmen TV series, Angela taking on the 7th Kalvary by herself, the first Watchmen post-credits scene, the answer for why baby squids are randomly raining down on Earth, Adrian's ego wanting people to know that he was responsible for the giant squid hoax in 1985, Adrian creating the Doctor Manhattan amnesia device 30 years ago, learning how Adrian ended up on Europa, the awkward moment where Angela indirectly caused the murder of Judd Crawford, our favorite quotes of the episode, Jesse not being able to talk, and more!
