Forget Dr. Spock

But a useful rule of thumb on what you give your kids access to is probably whether you’re comfortable explaining it to them or not. If you don’t feel comfortable answering the question of “What’s that man with the splotchy face doing?” with “He’s breaking that man’s finger because he wants information about who pushed The Comedian out of the window and no-one in the bar is telling him anything,” then probably you should move that stuff to a higher shelf, yes.

As before, does it make me a geek because I know exactly what you’re talking about?
Actually WATCHMEN and V FOR VENDETTA represent my entire experience with comics. Yeah, I know, I should get out more.
Yeah, it’s another indicator.
You should get out more; there’s a lot of good stuff. Still, if you’ve only read two, Watchmen and V for Vendetta are pretty damn good choices.
In the confessional spirit of this comment thread, I’ve only read smatterings of Sandman, three or four of the paperbacks. At some point in the nearish future I will rectify this oversight.
