Rorschach was born in 1940 making him 45 years old in 1985. |
The television report of his arrest says he is 35 years old. |
Rorschach tells his shrink in prison about how he got started. He worked at a garment company and they made a dress for a woman that she didn't like. He kept it and turned it into his mask. It had moving liquid between latex, so it was always changing. He later read that the woman was raped and murdered and none of her neighbors did anything about it, even though they heard it all. He became Rorschach after that so he could look at himself in the mirror. |
His mask isn't discussed. He only tells the story of the child kidnapper that he killed.
|
Rorschach handcuffs the child murderer to the stove. He hands him a hacksaw and pours kerosene over everything. He tells him he shouldn't waste time trying to saw through the cuffs. Then he drops a match and walks out. |
He just hacks his head to pieces with the cleaver. |
