Sticking with Geoff Johns's insightful Comic-Con panel, Doomsday Clock's supporting cast was revealed, and it's basically a 'who's who' of DC Comics.

Teaser artwork featuring Superman, Batman, Green Lanterns Jessica Cruz and Simon Baz, Cyborg, Flash, Aquaman and Wonder Woman was showcased, as good as confirming this bunch as major players in the story.

There is no word on which Watchmen characters will be joining Doctor Manhattan, aside from the blatant nod to Ozymandias, but we're hoping for the whole shebang - Comedian, Night Owl, Rorschach, Silk Specre, the lot.

Yes, we know some of them are dead, but since when does that matter when you've got a universe-altering storyline on your hands?

Another piece of teaser art depicted a panel of text bearing the slogan 'The end is here', suggesting the apocalyptic events they managed to avert at the end of Watchmen was merely postponed back in 1986.
