HBO has released the first teaser trailer for the upcoming Watchmen series.

"We are no one. We are everyone. And we are invisible," a man wearing a Rorschach mask says while surrounded by similarly masked acolytes. Then, as the sound of a ticking watch grows increasingly louder, we get various glimpses of the series' dystopian setting, which appears to feature a war between vigilantes and the authorities.
