![]() Squadron Supreme and Watchmen both look at the concept of superheroes and their place in the world from a rather cynical yet utterly realistic perspective. ![]() RELATED: Spider-Punk's Spider Van Does Whatever The Spider-Car Could ![]() ![]() Thus, it's impossible to talk about the story, with its deconstructive view on superheroes, without finding a few key similarities to DC's darkly influential Watchmen. It was incredibly unique, at the time, at least, to see "DC's stable of heroes" engage in morally questionable behavior. Other stories and series would be spun off from the 12-issue miniseries, but perhaps none were quite as timeless and classic. This only makes Nighthawk’s team even more vigilant to turn America back over to the people, a goal that results in several deaths.
