I re-read the Watchmen graphic novel today, and one aesthetic point struck me like a limp squid to the back of the skull. The Big Thing at the end is horribly, obscenely vaginal. It was really very disturbing indeed when I realised...

I direct you in particular to #8, page 11, and then #12, page 6. I rest my case.

Now speculate upon connections between Cthulhu and Freud's vagina dentata. And then don't tell me about them.
