10 Best Comic Book Moments Of 2018
4. Doctor Manhattan Enters
Doomsday Clock as a whole is just awesome. From start to where it is at the end of 2018 (set to end with #12 in July 2019), the looming question of the series has never been if Doctor Manhattan had changed the world to the way it is, but why.
The best moment of this modern masterpiece comes during issue seven. Doctor Manhattan, having explained basically everything throughout this issue, now sits on Mars, recounting the reason he has altered the fabric of reality. While a Super War brews, he sees Superman come to Mars, filled with rage, and a fight that will end everything, or at least, what Dr. Manhattan can see. In all his omnipotence and omnipresence, one month passes, and then nothing.
Doctor Manhattan has been the looming shadow behind everyone's actions in this series so finally have him appear, and giving away some of the answers in only a way Dr. Manhattan can, is eerily chilling.
When God himself cannot see into the future, what does that mean?
