Dollar Bill! (Before Watchmen)

Dollar Bill one shot number one of one of the Before Watchmen mega series.  Dollar Bill was William Benjamin Brady or Bill for short.  Bill was a sports hero who was injured during his final big game and could not turn professional.  He tried to be a singer but he was terrible.  This forced the man to look for any type of work.  Finally Bill found himself a rather crazy job as the defender of a large banking concern; he became a movie star and eventually a member of the Minutemen.  I believe everyone remembers how his story ended.  This comic was well written and told an interesting story of one of the Minute Men who is just mentioned in passing.  It was a fun read, not sure about the afterword but still a good story.
