Buzzfeed landed a sneak peek of Before Watchmen at DC Comics headquarters.

Sony got pantsed by some overeager beaver at Amazon.

You probably had absolutely no idea that DC had announced a bunch of Watchmen prequels, but they did.

Yesterday DC Comics announced "Before Watchmen", a set of prequels to Watchmen being made without the involvement of Alan Moore and Dave Gibbons (details and all the cover art released so far available here).

A couple months ago, Rich Johnston claimed DC had some prequel comics to Watchmen in the works, and we've explained why we're pretty psyched about that.

At right, ladies and gentlemen, is possibly your Silk Spectre.

Of course they freaking are.

Look, it's no secret that John Carpenter's 1982 The Thing is a horror masterpiece.

First up, in case you missed it the first time.
