The first issue of "Watchmen" debuted in 1986, when the United States and the Soviet Union were still at a tense point in the Cold War, though even by this time, there was the beginning of a "thawing" between the two; the signing of the Intermediate-Range Nuclear Forces Treaty was only a year away, for example. However, the threat of nuclear war was still very present.
Thus, the threat of nuclear war is pervasive in "Watchmen," which was set in 1985, when things were even more tense between the two countries. So, we get clever little references to nuclear war throughout the book. For instance, when Rorschach is walking through the seedy side of town in "Watchmen" #2, there is a marquee for "Enola Gay and the Little Boys," clearly some sort of burlesque show, but a reference to the B-29 bomber the Enola Gay that dropped the very first atomic bomb on Hiroshima. That bomb was nicknamed "Little Boy."

Does anyone know where I could find the Nostalgia commercial video that was playing at the start of the fight between Ozy and Comedian at the beginning of the movie? The one that had Nat King Cole's Unforgettable playing. I assume it's a Nostalgia perfume commercial since I found an almost identical image for Nostalgia that looks just like the woman in the video.

That would be awesome! HBO rarely let's us down, so fingers crossed!

Hello, I edit wikia about game AdVenture Capitalist. There is a building in the game, and somebody said to me that this building is from Watchmen. I don't know this universum so I have a question. What is it?
