The same is true of Bruce Wayne and Batman--Wayne is the disguise....Mind you, I hold to the view that the sharpest dissection of the real nature of Superman was that Tarrantino gave in Kill Bill. Clark Kent is the disguise, Superman is who he really is. Clark Kent is his judgement on humanity...
I watched The Watch on BBC America and liked it well enough, but by the time it ended I had the feeling that it was exactly what it was and nothing more, i.e. a small portion of a much larger story and universe. As such, I felt some of the elements could have been a little more detailed, more "fleshed out" to give the audience a better overall understanding of what we were watching....Over the weekend I stumbled across The Watch on BBC iPlayer. I'd heard they were making this but forgotten about it, so it was a nice surprise. It's the story of Captain Sam Vines, Corporal Carrot and the rest of the Ankh Morpork City Watch, based on the Discworld novels by the late Terry Pratchett...
