Who watches the Watchmen?Seventeen (2019) Everyone, once Damon Lindelof's take on the classic graphic novel comes to HBO.
The in-production series is supposed to air on the premium cable network sometime in 2019. This teasing first look, via the official WatchmenInstagram... well, it doesn't tell us much, actually.

A few things to highlight here. First, the color yellow plays an important role in the Watchmen comics. Here we see it on some kind of face mask, but bright splashes of yellow in the comics usually lined up with the iconic smiley face dripping blood logo from The Comedian's button.

In the comics, the character Rorschach is a crime-fighting vigilante who wears a white face mask adorned with shifting ink blots. The mask seen in this Insta share doesn't look like Rorschach's, but he's the only character who wears something even remotely like it.
How or if this image relates to those elements from the comics remains to be seen. This Insta post is the first formal tease HBO's released for the Watchmenseries. But the lack of obvious connection to the comic book source may be by design.
Back in May, Lindelof shared on Instagram an open letter to all Watchmenfans. In it, he talked... well... about a lot of things, actually. But one of those things, arguably the most important, was a vague sense of how he's approaching Watchmen.

"We have no desire to 'adapt' the 12 issues Mr. [Alan] Moore and Mr. [Dave] Gibbons created thirty years ago. Those issues are sacred ground and they will not be retread nor recreated nor reproduced nor rebooted," Lindelof wrote.
"They will, however, be remixed." Lindelof went on to explain that how his Watchmenwill be set in the world Moore and Gibbons created, but that "some of the characters will be unknown. New faces. New masks to cover them."
Could that be what we're seeing here? No one outside of Lindelof and his team can say. But we're intrigued to learn more.
