Sequart Book Club Hangout #3: Richard Bensam et al. on the Book MINUTES TO MIDNIGHT

Sequart founder Julian Darius hosts a roundtable discussion on the essay anthology MINUTES TO MIDNIGHT: TWELVE ESSAYS ON WATCHMEN, which analyzes Alan Moore's 1986 comics masterpiece, WATCHMEN. Included in the roundtable are MINUTES TO MIDNIGHT editor Richard Bensam and essay contributors Walter Hudsick and Geoff Klock. The book examines WATCHMEN from a variety of perspectives to uncover surprising answers to many questions: What does WATCHMEN reveal about the history of scientific theory? How is the atom bombing of Hiroshima refracted through the comic's pages? Does WATCHMEN’s murder mystery measure up to the standards of Raymond Chandler? Is the depiction of Rorschach an unfair caricature of the philosophy of Steve Ditko? Where are the secrets of Captain Metropolis and the Minutemen revealed? Was the Comedian right all along? Who shouldn’t read WATCHMEN? What are the limits of WATCHMEN and do they extend beyond a major motion picture? Originally filmed for Sequart's Patreon donors on 26 April 2015.
