Dr. Manhattan (Doomsday Clock): "It's May 1971. I have ended the war in Vietnam. I watch Blake shoot a woman with child and do nothing. It's April, 1938. I use a man named Carver Colman to help me find balance in the metaverse. Sixteen years later, I watch his mother bludgeon him to death in his home and I do nothing. It's November 1st, 1985. Adrian kills millions to unite the world. On November 2nd, I allow Adrian to walk free. I am a being of inaction. On a collision course with a man of action. To this universe of hope, I have become the villain."
