Rorschach
The king of the Watchmen characters is here. Rorschach is the most iconic and beloved character throughout the Watchmen universe. Rorschach is an actual redheaded step child. Born to an abusive family, Rorschach grew up shy and was often the target of bullying. When Rorschach was a teenager he entered the world of drugs and worked his way up the criminal hierarchy. Strange beginning for a hero, I know. Once Rorschach reached adulthood he donned costume like no other. He began to wear an mask of ink spots that were constantly moving and changing... like a Rorschach picture. Rorschach goes on to play the defining line of right and wrong in the classic graphic novel Watchmen. He is also the voice of the series serving as the narrator. Rorschach's character has influenced comic storytelling every since. Ever since Rorschach made his impact superheroes began to take on a more realistic and human portrayal.
