It’s not chaotic it’s just biology and environment both determine what kind of person we will most likely become and sadly most murders,rapist are created not born their environment destroyed their hope and their lives as well as others

[@feartheghus]

@@niwtodg3136 that simply isn’t true, we each have free will and can make our own decisions, I would disagree that most murderers or rapists are born of their environment. This is similar to the claim that poverty causes crime, when in reality it doesn’t even correlate properly with crime.

What I loved most about the comic and the movie, Rorschach and the Comedian were most human characters. Yes they were extreme in their beliefs and methods. Even downright evil, especially The Comedian. But deep down behind the darkness that infected their souls, they really did give a damn.

[@dallas317]

[@crowfather3838]

It's why they are extreme instead of trying to subject their trauma to "treatment" so they can be socially exceptable for society, they do what they like, just like the bastards they hunt. Although, the Comedian did things that made him as bad as the guys Rorschach hunted

[@billkevin4501]

The Comedian didn't give any damns. He was more of a criminal than regural criminals using his superhero "identity" to kill, rape and destroy.

[@tth0_r447]

There are some people who view Rorschach as a psychopath but I think that he was the only one that was sane. He knew what he was and wasn’t trying to live a lie like Nite Owl or Ozymandias. He was the only one that truly cared about the human race and was willing to die for it. Peace based on a lie is not peace and Dr. Manhattan is a monster in the fact that he couldn’t see that and he killed Rorschach.

Rorschach is such an amazing character. He's not good: he's violent, discriminatory and believes he's always in the right. But he was the only character who had a set of ideals - with an attempt to do what's right - and never compromised.

[@feartheghus]

They each had ideals, Ozmodias is utilitarian, for instance. The difference is that Rorschach has ideals where what was valuable was the action, not the consequences.

[@survivalistboards]

Rorschach made the movie. Without him, the movie would have been second rate.

[@zanestice1137]

I know this comment is 2 years late...but don't forget about The Comedian. Arguably the best character in the Graphic Novel & the film, beautifully brought to life by Jeffrey Dean Morgan. The Comedian is the catalyst for the entire story. The only member of both "The Minutemen" & "The Watchman". "Edward Blake, The Comedian, born 1918, buried in the rain. Murdered. Is that what happens to us? No time for friends? Only our enemies leave roses. Violent lives ending violently. Blake understood. Humans are savage in nature. No matter how much you try to dress it up, to disguise it. Blake saw society's true face. Chose to be a parody of it, a joke." Rorschach is definitely the strongest, most interesting part of Watchmen, and the true heart of the story...but in my opinion, Edward Blake is the best character. He was a piece of shit, but he was the smartest of the bunch. A man who truly understood human beings and the vile lengths they will go to. He discovered the truth before anyone else...and it shook him to the core. He knew Ozzy would come for him, and he faced death as fearlessly and as viciously as he dished it out. "Blake understood"

[@marcosgin777]

He made watchmen tho

[@EFantasic]

Just have to say: this is my favorite tribute to this character. Perfectly displays how brutal this world was. Love it. Very beautifully done and I hope you return to make more tributes in the future. Rorschach was the most human character (the Comedian right there with him).
