The Games
The lines between good and evil have been blurred and crime and terror run rampant in the streets unchecked. The alleys, rooftops, and sewers are crawling with criminals and brutal gangs. And now to make matters worse, Underboss—in a daring escape—has broken out of prison and is ruling with vicious darkness. The city is in need of saviors and only masked hero vigilantes answer the call. Answer the call in Watchmen: The End Is Nigh.
