A few years ago one of my best pals phoned me up from comic-con. He had somehow just wrangled defenseless Damon Lindelof into a corner for a nice chat. Mostly comics talk. The best part for me was that Damon confirmed a bunch of our theories about LOST including the Watchmen/X-Men references. It’s probably common knowledge now, but for a couple of nerds from Utah it was an awesome validation at the time.

Can you guess Damon Lindelof’s favorite comic was while growing up? Watchmen. His second favorite? X-Men
