I don't think anyone is the hero. I think there are no heroes in the world of Watchmen, and I think that's basically the point. They're all, in their own ways, completely incapable of being heroes - they can't play the role as it's conceived in the superhero drama. Doc Manhattan definitely can't - to be so beyond the human scale that you lose all relation to it, that's not heroism.

The one character I haven't really thought through is Laurie, and I don't remember exactly the tone of her ending off the top of my head, so I don't want to make any definitive statement there about that. But in general, I don't think any of the characters in Watchmen succeed in heroic terms.
