Just after reading it, the black cargo ship comic is about a captain who was killed by the god of death, so he thought that the god of death would continue to kill his own family, and under blind impulse and analysis, he killed his own family. It has an allusion to the villain Ann and Dr. Manhattan in the movie, and so does Ann. In order to save the earth, he sacrificed many people, in exchange for the peace of the Cold War, and imposed his desire for peace on the earth on innocent people. Dr. Manhattan insisted on his own understanding and was then used. The black cargo ship is the finishing touch. The connotation of the whole movie is still very deep. See Gao Zan's answer for details. .
