Answer Question

1 Answer - Sort by: Date | Rating

    Rorschach who's real name is Walter Joseph Kovacs is one of central characters in Watchmen.  

    Rorschach is a Vigilante who wears a mask which bears the pattern of an ink blot.
    At the beginning of Watchmen Rorschach is the last active costumed adventurer remaining active after the passage of the keene act which outlawed vigilantes.

    Rorschach is an extremely right wing character; his mother was a prostitute and abused him as a child .  Rorschach believes in moral absolutism and moral objectivism, good and evil are clearly defined, evil must be punished without remorse.

    While Rorschach like all the characters in Watchmen (other than Doctor Manhattan) has no super powers, he is very clever and resourceful detective, investigator and fighter. Rorschach also has a gas powered grappling gun which was designed and built by the Nite Owl II.

    Alan Moore has since admitted to basing the character of Rorschach on the Charlton Comics characters The Question and Mr A. Rorschach was voted the 6th greatest comic book character by Wizard magazine.
