Nitpicking Watchmen – Doctor Manhattan Improves on His Reforming Abilities

As portrayed in the film, Jon Osterman slowly learns to reform himself after the accident that first gave him his superhuman abilities. After Ozymandias atomizes him, Doctor Manhattan once again reforms himself. His technique has improved judging by the reflection in Nite Owl’s goggles.

That said, Doctor Manhattan must prefer the glowing blue form, because that it what we see for the remainder of the film.
