The thermal dust mentioned in the video can be bought here. The results are absolutely stunning.

Are DC and Warner Bros. intentionally trolling Alan Moore at this point? Launching a prequel to Watchmen despite Moore's strong disapproval is one thing, but now they're licensing Watchmen's iconic vigilante/social critic, Rorshach, for use on a toaster.

The toaster sports a Watchmen logo and a group shot of the main characters, and it will brown your toast to look like Rorshach's famous mask (albeit without the randomly shifting patterns).

It would be funny if weren't so tragic.

DC Comics has ramped up the promotion for its controversial Watchmen prequel series, Before Watchmen, with a brand new issue of the series' famous newspaper, the New Frontiersman.

The top story, of course, is the Senate's Keene Act, which would introduce a mandatory superhero registration program.

There's not a ton of new information for anyone who's read the original Alan Moore series, but the paper does provide some good background for the folks who are jumping in with Before.
