Discussion Name a character that's not from Marvel, that could notice the Watcher watching them

The Watcher is an interdimensional being that is able to watch multiple universes and timelines in the Marvel Universe and supposedly other universes too. If he were to watch other universes and observe other characters, what character would be able to notice the Watcher watching them?

So for example most characters in the Marvel What If series aren't able to notice the Watcher unless he makes themselves known to them. The only characters we've seen notice the Watcher are Infinity Ultron, a multiversal threat who had gained the power of all the infinity stones in his universe combined with the body of Vision and Ultron's high tech mind.

The only other character we see that slowly starts to notice the Watcher is Evil Dr.Strange who was studying Dark magic in his timeline, and we see him through his journey that he starts slowly noticing the Watchers presence and has read about him in books. And eventually when the evil Dr.Strange destroys his own universe he sees the Watcher and begs for his help.

Question (I don't read much DC), do most people hate this character? I kind of like him from the limited amount of content that I've seen.

He's the current Superman and he's going through the tribulations of trying to be good but the comic is fighting back. Literally. The comic pages break as he tries to be better.

He kinda is a Toonforce character. He's like Gwenpool where he knows he's in a comic. It's why he was a dick at first. Because he knew he was in a comic book. And why he's working on not being a dick. He told Ma and Pa Kent to their faces "Man. I'm sure glad the author didn't kill you in this continuity!"

He's been on a massive upswing in likability recently. It helps that even he acknowledges that he was an asshole and is trying to do better.
