watchmen 1-4

What was interesting was Rorschach's face. No doubt named after the Rorschach's ink blot test. There were no two ink patterns on his face were the same; with every different panel, so was his face different. So, the Rorschach test judges a person's personality by what he/she sees in the ink pattern. I first thought that Rorschach (the character) might be schizophrenic (or is the reader supposed to be?), but then I read on pg. 19, third panel, top right corner, "Why are so few of us left active, healthy, and without personality disorders?" So he isn't Schizophrenic.

While reading through chapter one, I kinda got an idea of what Watchmen might be about. If I were to use a phrase to describe it, I'd say: "The Incredibles for adults."

I'd write more, but for the sake of brevity, I'll stop.
