Ozymandias (also known as Adrian Veidt):
Of all the characters in Watchmen , Ozymandias most closely resembles Nietzsche’s Übermensch, but even here the resemblance is not complete. Although by committing mass murder he appears to break with conventional morality, his actions simply conform to
utilitarianism, which endorses the principle that “the end justifies the means. ” Nevertheless, we can agree that Ozymandias is a close approximation of what Nietzsche meant by the Übermensch.
"I wanted to match his accomplishment, bringing an age of illumination to a benighted world."
