I agree with you there - that's why I feel that it needs to be read several times to pick up on all those nuances. What I found really interesting to discover while going through some really old comics from the early 80s is that Alan Moore's original 'Watchmen' proposal was going to use all the old Charlton heroes that DC had acquired, like Nightshade (read Silk Spectre) Blue Beetle (read Nite Owl) and Captain Atom (read Dr Manhattan), but this was turned down because DC already had plans for them within continuity, so he had to create new heroes for the story - if you're fans of mainstream comics and like the Charlton heroes (Blue Beetle has always been a favourite of mine) it's quite interesting picturing what Watchmen would be like with these heroes instead.
