Rules
AI Art: While we appreciate AI generated art, there are more appropriate communities to post that type of art to. Please keep posts to non-AI generated art only. This rule includes AI art that was then manually manipulated (e.g. drawing on top of something generated by AI).
Nudity: Nudity is and has always been a part of art, but it may be something that some users don't wish to see or cannot view in certain circumstances (e.g. at work). If your work contains nudity, please mark it as NSFW. Work that contains nudity that is not marked as NSFW will be taken down. As long as the NSFW tag is used, we welcome nude subject matter.
Spam: Please do not spam this community. Self promotion is fine if you just want people to be aware of your work, but blatant attempts at spam will result in the past being removed and possibly a ban. If you aren't sure if what you are posting is spam, please contact the moderator first.
Conduct: Be nice, and don't be a jerk. Constructive criticism is OK, but don't be mean. Encouragement is always welcomed.

Basically Rob and his wife Maria discover Watchmen much to their disgust and horror.
Why does reading Watchmen make them want to eat brains?
That’s coming from Maria: she’s a zombie saying an euphemism.
I’m trying to wrap my mind around this. A euphemism for what? Is this a sort of Chewbacca situation? Like how Chewbacca roars and Han understands him? Like, is she a zombie and can only talk about brains, but he understands her? The comic doesn’t provide a lot of context clues in this regard😆
It’s sort of a loose continuity where sometimes Maria moans and shambles and others she functions like a human.
The truth is Maria is supposed to be a moaning and shambling but very friendly undead monster.
If it's the classic Watchmen comic, there's not a lot wrong with it aside from the unnecessary pirate interludes and a few parts of the ending sequence (not spoiling anything).
The deceased Comedian is supposed to be seen as a horrible guy and that's portrayed well. There's a lot of political intrigue and philosophy that desires provoking thoughts as well, so it's more of a mature read rather than pure shock value like a lot of fiction media nonsense these days.
