Resumo

Em 1987, Watchmen revolucionou o mundo da banda desenhada devido à complexidade dos seus super-heróis e a maneira humana como estes eram retratados. O trauma é um elemento essencial na história, uma vez que tal como afecta a população em geral, afecta também os heróis da narrativa. A série de televisão Watchmen (2019) inspira-se no ambiente e no género de herói que é retratado em 1987, tentando seguir o legado que o graphic novel deixou. Assim, esta breve reflexão foca-se na representação do trauma colectivo e individual no livro e na continuidade que lhes é dada na série de televisão, em que surgem ainda novos traumas, também eles relacionados com a narrativa inicial.
