Today in Comics History, November 1, 1985: Headline: You Need Lungs to Live


from Doomsday Clock #10 (DC, July 2019), script by Geoff Johns, pencils and inks by Gary Frank, colors by Brad Anderson, letters by Rob Leigh

Which mean, then, that the following pages from Watchmen take place on November 1. Which therefore means that eveything in Watchmen issues 9, 10, and 11 also take place on November 1. At least, if you accept the above as canon, which, I guess, it technically is. (Which is the best kind of canon.)



from Watchmen #9 (DC, May 1987), script by Alan Moore; pencils, inks, and letters by Dave Gibbons, colors by John Higgins

On the other hand, Doc Manhattan could have travelled forward in time a couple days and then...eh, no. Too complicated to think about. November 1 it is.


from The Simpsons "I Love Lisa" (season 4, episode 15) (Gracie Films/20th Television, February 11, 1993), written by Frank Mula, directed by Wes Archer
