10 Strangest Comic Book Doomsday Devices Of All Time

The original story of the Watchmen comic book is heralded as the most perfect superhero story ever written.

However, one thing about this acclaimed comic that some readers have always tended to question is the biological weapon used by Adrian Veidt.

In his grand plan to halt nuclear armageddon, Adrian Veidt, aka Ozymandias, decided to use the threat of alien invasion to create a worldwide alliance against the imaginary threats of outer space.

To enact this deadly plan, Veidt assembled a team of the world's top engineers, scientists, and comic book artists to create a terrifying alien squid monster.

Admittedly the squid was an effective but bizarre weapon proven capable of wiping out an entire city in order to bring about world peace.

However, the monster itself literally didn't even do anything except die when it teleported into New York, killing millions and distorting the minds of millions more with psychic waves of fear and despair.
