Doomsday Clock #1 Review

Almost 30 years before the attempt to fix the bad idea that was the New52, DC Comics was in the midst of a different rebirth when Watchmen #1 was first published; only a few months after Crisis on Infinite Earths had realigned and attempted to simplify DC continuity.

Today, we’ve got the first image of superhero duo Hawk/Hank Hall ( Alan Ritchson ) and Dove/Dawn Granger ( Minka Kelly ). Like the Robin costume, these outfits were designed by  Laura Jean Shannon , whose credits include  Black Lightning ,  Iron Man  and  The Jungle Book . And the costumes look…fine?
