A prequel to Watchmen on the whole is just pretty pointless and redundant. The history and backstory behind it was already strongly detailed in the work proper, it was sort of a major part in the story in fact. Not much more to tell.

Pretty sure it's super important that we learn about Ozymandias' first gay experience, or witness the Comedian's failed stand-up act that led to his intense nihilism.

Also that we give money to DC for multiple miniseries that are actually longer than the original damn thing.

Like when I first heard about this I think I envisioned an actual single miniseries as some kind of tie-in we could forget about, like maybe six comics total, not a fricking pantheon of pointlessness.
