Watchmen #1 by Alan Moore
Set in an alternate 1985 where superheroes are real and have altered the course of history, the story begins with the murder of a government-sanctioned vigilante known as the Comedian. As the investigation unfolds, it draws in other former heroes, including the uncompromising Rorschach, who suspects a conspiracy targeting their kind. Through a gritty and complex narrative, the tale explores themes of power, morality, and the blurred lines between heroism and vigilantism, all against a backdrop of Cold War tensions and societal unrest.
