- If Travis Bickle decided to become a superhero, he might have turned out a bit like Rorshach. Haunted by a miserable upbringing and driven mad by the decadence he sees all around him, he wants to protect good and fight against evil. The trouble is, he doesn’t see much good in the world to speak of.
In the daytime, Rorschach is your classic street-corner doomsayer, walking up and down the avenues of New York City with a sign reading “THE END IS NIGH.” At night…he doesn’t exactly put on a mask and fight crime. He puts on a mask and beats the hell out of lowlifes, or breaks their fingers in search of dubious intelligence, but it’s hard to say that he does much to lower the crime rate.
In the ‘60s, when he was a little more stable, he partnered with the second Nite Owl and worked alongside the second generation of costumed vigilantes. Alone among his fellow masks, however, Rorshach refused to retire or enter government service after the Keene Act of 1977. His response to the Act was a note, attached to the body of a strangled criminal: “NEVER.” Ever since then, he’s haunted the streets of New York, growing more unhinged and violent with each passing day.
Like most of the “heroes” in Watchmen, Rorshach is based on one of the old Charlton Comics characters that were later integrated into the DC superhero universe. He’s an homage to The Question, another urban vigilante with a smooth, featureless face. His name, of course, comes from the shifting patterns on his mask, which resembles the Rorschach personality test, or “inkblot test.”
