Description
Doctor Manhattan ( Dr. Jonathan Osterman ) is a fictional DC Comics character created by writer Alan Moore and artist Dave Gibbons. He debuted in the limited series graphic novel, Watchmen.
The series is noted for addressing metaphysical issues, with Doctor Manhattan being the primary exponent. He is often used as an example of a post-human god. Doctor Manhattan later appeared in the Before Watchmen comic book prequel.
In 2016, as part of DC Comics' Rebirth relaunch, Manhattan became a major character in the DC Universe. It was revealed that he was responsible for the Flashpoint event, creating The New 52 timeline/universe in the process, a factor that removed 10 years of DC characters' history. That led him to become one of the main characters in the Doomsday Clock miniseries, published from 2017 to 2019.
Doctor Manhattan made his first live-action debut in the 2009 film Watchmen , played by Billy Crudup. He also appeared in the 2019 limited television series Watchmen , played by Yahya Abdul-Mateen II in his original form played by Darrell Snedeger.
