>be Alan Moore
>write a character that encompasses every philosophy and political ideology you despise, showing the faults of these points of view
>make him disgusting in every way, being of poor hygiene, being incredibly sexually repressed, and having zero social skills
>depict him as unhinged and insane
>a vast majority of readers praise this character as being a true hero and a complete badass

No wonder he became fed up with comics.

Moore is a hack

Moore 1) failed to adequately show that Rorschach's negative qualities are causally linked to his philosophy, reducing his commentary to implying they're bad because the fictional character he created who followed them was bad and 2) Rorschach is hypocritical and doesn't follow his philosophy all the way through anyway so you could alternatively interpret Rorschach is a bad person for NOT following his philosophy.

Also, literally 90% of Rorschach fanboyism comes from his visual design. Like I'm not even joking. It's fucking perfect both aesthetically and symbolically.

GG Moore.

Didn't Linkara idolize Rorschach and completely unironically agreed with him?

I think making Roshach impoverished and abused as a kid blows it all. I mean he turned out fucking great for someone who had that sort of childhood. Also the pussy therapist kind of accidentally validates him too, as does his over all integrity, friendship and loyalty to Dan.

Really? He was bad, but he didn't seem really that big: literally or figuratively.

Feels good, the rest of characters are a bunch of useless and cowards.

Maybe if you didn't make him the only character who was right at the end people wouldn't had liked him so much.

The world being shifting shades of black and white is a better stance than everything being grey.

He turned out to be an insane murder-hobo. Not the best place to end up.

>>94514888
He wasn't right, he was just never proven wrong, and stuck to his "morals" throughout the actual story. It is implied, though that his morals are just a shady and poorly followed as all the other characters but never explained outright for the casual audience

One of his worst traits is also that he is an unhinged vigilante, but the unhinged vigilante is an accepted trope in comic books so that doesn't seem that bad of a flaw when it should be.

Are they? His explanation of hs stance actually moved his therapist and arguably made him a better person. Do any other characters accomplish anything like that, space squids aside?
>>
Yes, I for one supported the rapists he killed.
>>
He did nothing wrong.
