"NECA: WATCHMEN THE END IS NIGH BASEBALL HAT NECA presents an all new baseball hat featuring the Watchmen ""End is Nigh"" logo. (A Little Watchmen Fact) Moore and Gibbons designed Watchmen to showcase the unique qualities of the comics medium and to highlight its particular strengths. In a 1986 interview, Moore said, ""What I'd like to explore is the areas that comics succeed in where no other media is capable of operating"", and emphasized this by stressing the differences between comics and film. Moore said that Watchmen was designed to be read ""four or five times,"" with some links and allusions only becoming apparent to the reader after several readings. Gibbons described the series as ""a comic about comics"". Dave Gibbons notes that, ""as it progressed, Watchmen became much more about the telling than the tale itself. The main thrust of the story essentially hinges on what is called a macguffin, a gimmick ... So really the plot itself is of no great consequence ... it just really isn't the most interesting thing about Watchmen. As we actually came to tell the tale, that's where the real creativity came in."
