That's right: webcomics are breaking out the Watchmen parodies and tributes, just in time for the big release. Here's a few I've come across.
- Thinkin' Lincoln takes the title literally
- In Unwinder's Tall Comics, Unwinder reflects on the discrete moments of his life, including a rather poor choice of Halloween costume last fall
- At PVP, Scott Kurtz takes the opportunity to provide criticism of the newspaper comics industry
I'm certain that more Watchmen-related comics will surface as the movie is released. If you come across one, please drop a comment and share the link with us. Come Monday, there will probably be some kind of poll thing again.

I thought this was one of the best Unwinder's yet. I thought of it as soon as I saw the title of your blog post.
Ces Marciuliano has been doing Watchmen toons all week at Medium Large. His normal fans aren't getting it, but the comic nerds (me included) are having a ball. :)
Also, I haven't seen it yet, but I hear the Saturday Morning Watchmen spoof on Newgrounds is all sorts of the awesomes.
I'd also like to point out that the PvP take on Watchmen is probably the cleverest thing that Scott Kurtz has done in a long, long time.
Ctrl-Alt-Del's Watchmen comic is nothing special, but I might as well include a link here for the sake of completeness.
@El Santo:
I found Kurtz' "Ombudsmen" series to be a little heavy-handed at spots, but it also has some very witty lines in it, and the overall idea is pretty clever. Thanks for the links to Medium Large and Saturday Morning Watchmen--those were great. :)
