iRubric: Watchmen- Graphic Thinking rubric

We've torn apart Alan Moore and Dave Gibbons' Watchmen into so many little words and pictures. Now, how can you use their skill sets to your benefit? Using a combination of words and images, motifs, and allusions, craft an original narrative that conveys one or more of the themes evident in Watchmen. This may take the form of a comic. Or it may take on another form -- so long as the finished product requires an understanding of both word and image in order to come to a full experience. For example, you might craft a film that makes interesting use of background text, subtitles, or some other use of the visible written word.
