Looking for something to keep you busy after “Game of Thrones” is over? HBO just dropped their new trailer for their upcoming “Watchmen” series. Take a look.
So basically… huh?
Perhaps you’ve read the classic graphic novel series or seen the 2009 Zack Snyder film, but we’re looking at something entirely different here. We can see many familiar sights, but the images are twisted from the source material.
In the biggest change, instead of one Rorschach , there are dozens of fans or followers in his mask. Perhaps these guys are fans of the original hellraiser? Showrunner Damon Lindelof posted on Instagram that this is not a sequel, nor is it a direct adaptation of the beloved graphic novels. Instead, this series is set in the “Watchmen” world. Beyond that, it’s anybody’s guess what we’ll see.

“Watchmen” will debut on HBO this fall.
