Do we have to be anal about only including tropes from the original graphic novel? Before Watchman and Doomsday Clock are official licenced media by DC. It seems stupid to ban tropes from those works when they're the same characters.

Eh, I get it. Watchmen was a standalone, single release graphic novel for decades. Making this page suddenly worthless to people who only read the easy-to-get-ahold-of graphic novel seems annoying, and it's not like there aren't other places to trope the sequel.
That said, it's good to include a link to that, so I added it to the top.

Responding to the above discussion. I think it's time to create a separate character page for not only the Before Watchmen series, and move references from this page to the B-Watch character page but also create new pages if and when DC incorporates Watchmen into the universe as it plans on doing right now.
Should Dr Manhattan be given his own ComicBook/ page since he is appearing in the mainstream DC universe?

I was ABOUT to make this a topic. I feel like there should be some different page- because when people go to the Watchmen character page, they'll be looking for him in the book, not the DCU at large- maybe we need to wait till he actually plays a role, and then shows more 'new' things, but I think the one on Watchmen Character page should be JUST Watchmen.
Removed from main page, as there is a cleanup effort on one of the pages linked here underway and I am not sure what to do with this entry:
- The Jester: At the beginning of his vigilante career he wore a clown costume trying to invoke this trope. However, nobody got the joke. So he became a Straw Nihilist Troll who only said truthful things to hurt others without any hope that someone would ever get the joke and do something to change things. At the first reunion of the Crimebusters, the Comedian was so mad that the heroes were so vain to think they could solve America problems that he claimed that their efforts would not matter because a nuclear war will destroy the world anyway. The Crimebusters disbanded immediately, but even when the Comedian thought he was trolling them, in reality he exposed the real situation to the only hero with the knowledge and resources to avert that trope (notice that Veidt costume seems to be a King, and he is sitting in a chair very much like a royal throne).
