When I reread Watchmen last fall, it took me a good 8 hours. It really is dense as hell, especially when you're trying not to gloss over details.
But I can think of another comics writer that did it to me. The Sandman trade "A Doll's House," I believe (the one that's entirely set in one woman's fantasy dreamscape) also took me quite a while to read through.

Sam Vimes: I do.
Bureaucrat: Well then who watches you?
Vimes: I do that too.

No way I'm going to deal with that shit.
When I mentioned it coming out today, my brother was glad to currently be in a smaller town. Otherwise, he wouldn't be going so close to the release.

So it's just usually Alan Moore.
