Like dudes with strong morals who put them at odds with the cruel world around them and or deeply flawed wrecks who still manage to get their inner ethics to shine through the wreckage
Kinda wish there was more Rorsach-like characters

this Black person ruined Latin music forever. we still have to endure regueton nearly 20 years later, fricking garbage
Dude you get it
That comic was so fricking sick
Ummm... sweetie... this is the current year. Morals are le bad and for incels only.
It's kinda weird and contradictory the chuds like the character who was AGAINST mass murder, seems a bit out of character for them
White genocide is wrong
but the squid also killed black people
If you say so
The overton window has moved. Today's chud was yesteryear's liberal.
>the character who was AGAINST mass murder
reminder Rorscharch was willing to commit the world to global nuclear war. he had no problem with mass death, only the deception involved.
'even in the face of armageddon' is him stating his willingness to let the world die for the 'right' reason.
I'm of the opinion his choice to commit suicide-by-Manhattan is itself a compromise. He's willing to compromise his morals in the abstract, e.g. excusing Comedian's rape and general poor character, but when confronted with an actual moral choice with further-ranging effects than mildly offending a woman, he breaks down.
He's not an idiot, he's perfectly aware that revealing the conspiracy could tip the world back to the brink of nuclear war, but his morals can't square the circle of committing mass murder to prevent/delay it. So he makes a big show of going back to the mainland to reveal everything and forces Manhattan to take action against him, rather than keeping his mouth shut for a few hours so he can actually go back and reveal the truth to whomever.
has it occurred to you that maybe his emotions just got the better of him
There are certainly plenty of ways to interpret it. I just think it fits in with Rorschach's overall hypocrisy.
This does not take into account that he had zero options. What is he supposed to do? Tell Manhattan he totally won’t expose the truth and somehow trick the man who can see the future?
He can only see into the future for what he is present for, Manhattan is fricked off Earth after that.
Just don't say anything in the immediate. Just go "hurm" and hitch a ride back to the mainland THEN start fricking shit around. Ozymandias didn't think he was a threat even after he said he was going to expose the truth out loud to everyone.
Manhattan isn't omniscient, he can only see his own timeline, and he leaves right after.
What's he from?
I believe that's Golden Age Sandman
that's really tough to write.. because, as much as we like to think otherwise, your morals pretty much come from your upbringing. and we're better people BECAUSE we didn't have the shitty upbringing bad people did. You can certainly reject how you were raised, but it's extremely difficult and quite unlikely.
I had an idea once for a Rorschach inspired character who met a female pacifist character of mine.
She confused him at first but over time he grew to respect her company and decided to re examine himself, deciding that good and evil do exist and that the grey areas were the product of the world being cruel. So he decided that the only way to get rid of the muddled grey area was to change the world
It seems to me that modern-day pacifists are the ones who don't think that there is a distinct good and a distinct evil, and that they merely hope that everyone will just be pacifists like them.
Eh, not quite. She’s more of a character who refuses to be evil despite having faced the worst of the world and constantly having her life in danger. Someone who knows that evil exists but believes that most people are inherently good and that life is inherently precious
She doesn’t hurt others mostly cause she’s a tad delusional, she eventually grown out of it enough for self defense
There are a lot of Garth Ennis characters you'd probably like:
303 by Garth Ennis
Enemy Ace: The War in Heaven
As long as we're talking about Dave Gibbon illustrated comics, Screaming Eagles from War Stories is good.
Didn't Situational Ethics Man get screwed because Truth Exists Man had already leaked the truth, so while Truth Exists Man was stupid, stinky, and a psycho who never got a girlfriend, Situational Ethics Man was still a real fricker too.
>Alan Moore
>Believer in Chaos-Magick
>Literally names a character in your book 'Rorschach'
>Chimps the frick out when people interpret the fictional entity you called 'Rorschach' differently then you.
>write a book with complex characters who have complex morals
>people take one of them at face value because he's cool and uncompromising and the protagonist
>remember your readers are all manchildren and get sad again
To be fair, Rorschach is also a manchild. It makes sense he’d appeal to manchildren.
But enough about yourself.
True
>make a character as close to a literal nazi as you can
>people like him anyway
>remember that your reader base is made up of man children
>95% of your portfolio is cape shit
Moore is just a lucky frick up.
>>make a character as close to a literal nazi as you can
who? Because Rorschach certainly isn't anywhere near a Nazi
Moore has gone on the record saying Rorschach isn't a fascist
I usually like TheAlmightye-girl's videos, but I am annoyed that he perpetuated the "Alan Moore hates Rorschach and Steve Ditko and intentionally designed the character as a one-dimensional strawman with no valid points" myth purely due to his personal hateboner for the guy in his HBO Watchmen review.
The idea that Moore Thinks You're A moron For Liking Rorschach stems mostly from a couple out of context quotes and heavy astroturfing that occurred in 2019 in order to market the HBO series. You can think Alan Moore is a big stupid moron all you want, but trying to claim that he didn't respect Ditko's work is just disingenuous.
>Kinda wish there was more Rorsach-like characters
Anon, Rorschach is literally based on two characters exactly like him created by Steve Ditko: The Question and Mr. A
Look them up, all of Ditko's Question and Mr. A comics are basically more Rorschach.
Those two aren't flawed, though.
All the "for the greater good" folks get real quiet when the intergalactic ambassadors come to inform them that Earth has to be destroyed for the good of the rest of the galaxy, because humans are categorically a threat.
Man, whoever wrote that "Moore's a doodoo head for not understanding that spreading the truth is more important than humanity's survival" bit really thought they had something.
A reminder that if you think Rorschach is a hypocrite because he supported the a-bombing of Japan but rejects Ozzy's squid attack of NYC, you're a fricking idiot because the comparisons aren't the same.
Rorschach is a hypocrite for many, many reasons.
>t. Another butthurt Rorschach fanboy
Rorsach would rather destroy the whole world than go against his code. What a dangerous Autist.
