PAGE 28
Panel 1: The dialogue carries over from the previous
page with the remark, “totally indifferent” a reflection of Dr. Manhattan and
how he views humanity and how many will see him in light of his desertion of
the planet.
Panel 2: The radiation symbol is in extreme close-up
as the nuclear possibility looms closer.
Panel 3: “. . . Humanity is in the hands of a higher
authority . . .” is a remark on the fact that, in this panel, Dr. Manhattan is
holding the photo of him – before the accident, when he was human – and Janey
Slater. The higher authority always alluded to is God, which is how Dr.
Manhattan is perceived, and in his hands he is holding the last remnant of his
own humanity.
