So the entire graphic novel will be on sale on March 3, 2009 on a Blu-ray Disc and also standard DVD. I'd like to know from everyone if you havent already read this amazing story would you buy it on a disc and hear and see it on your tv or would you still grab the graphic novel from its original spot the bookshelf of a store let me know I am curious.

I am planning on buying the comic (hard copy) prior to seeing the movie on BD

I'm actually interested. Paper media kind of gets to me now. Reading comics on a computer or electronic reader is nicer. Blu Ray would limit me, but the resolution should be good. I'll wait for reviews though.

Go with the graphic novel first and if you like it then get the motion comic Blu-ray coming out. Watchmen is the finest piece of work ever done in the field of comics and it was meant to be seen in that format. You can get the trade paperback for around $10.

And before everyone complains...yes:
A guy does Silk Specter's voice.

That's because it's produced by Warner Audiobooks, and is technically considered an Audiobook, except that Warner has now branched into Flash-animating comics/GN's. (Watchmen:TMC's success on iTunes/PS3 has now started Warner on releasing Peanuts:TMC)
And Audiobooks tend to hire only one reader, although to be fair, he does do a serviceable job voicing Rorschach.
