DC has unveiled the first group shot of the young Watchmen assembled for its Before Watchmen project (click on the image for a larger version). The art is by Lee Bermejo. The artwork has been released as part of a new initiative at DC to push digital comics; additional pieces should be released in the coming weeks at the Watchmen page .
Just to recap, the Before Watchmen project includes several spinoffs based on the characters from Alan Moore’s iconic 1986 Watchmen graphic novel.
