Red Sunrise was a brief "what-if" story about the Soviets during the time of the original Watchmen. It hinged on the notion that the Russians successfully replicated Dr. Manhattan's Intrinsic Field Experiment, and created Dr. Kremlin, a superbeing with all of the same powers and abilities as Manhattan, but also with a fierce loyalty to the cause of Communism. Despite the fact that it isn't canon, Red Sunrise is considered one of the most intriguing WatchmeX storylines ever written, and is a fan favorite.
