A bit off topic but this makes me think of the Roche case. Kovacs tells Long that he made a promise to her parents that he would find her and return her unharmed. I have to wonder if he showed up to their front step in costume, and how that all went down? Does he have a romanticized recollection of what happened?

^^^ You know, I've wondered about that very thing. I'd like to think that Rorschach went back and told them what happened, but considering the shape he was in emotionally at that time, I don't think that's a remote possibility. I think the most likely thing is that he never went back to speak to the parents, and let the newspapers and word on the street tell them the story. It's cruel, and it's horrible, and I think he could barely live with himself for breaking his promise to them.

(Alternatively, I suppose he could have told them that he'd taken care of Grice, much in the same way he tried to comfort Dan over Hollis Mason's murder by saying they were getting closer to the truth...)

Rorschach would necessarily need to lose his virginity.

To lose his virginity he would have to take a bath to lose the stink, he would need to buy new clothes, he would have to clean his apartment, maybe move from the slum where he lives, he would have to buy food, he would need to hire a speech trainer to correct the monotonous way he talks, he would have to give up his life as a vigilante.

Or

He could pay a......a......A WHORE!

So in other words, it is more likely that Blake could have a daughter.........with his daughter.

Although, despite all of this, if Moore ever decides to get back to comic writing and stop playing Merlin, and makes Watchmen 2, it would certainly be very interesting to see Rorschach Jr., once again, all of this is VERY unlikely.

Well, i guess it didn't come out right :lol:

Of course i don't want Watchmen 2, it wouldn't make sense, what i meant to say was that due to the wonderful complexity of all the characters, it would've been interesting to see a sub-plot in which a character like Rorschach, a very disturbed and self-conscious individual would deal with being a father.

Although i wasn't kidding when i said i wanted Moore to stop playing Merlin :D

I always thought that Rorschach had sex with his land owner, then she got pregnated, and she had his child. There was a scene in the book when Walter looks at the child at his apartment after breaking out of prison. And that kid looks similar to Walter from when he was that young too. Or probably it was a way of Alan Moore telling us that Walter was thinking of that kid as himself when he was that age, and left for his own reason. But like I said, he probably did pregnated the landowner and that was his child. And maybe he did left for the reason knowing that he knew it was his child and felt that it was right for him to leave since he thinks of himself like his father and felt he knew he's doing the right thing.

But that's the way I see it, and it could be a cool story to explore more but I guess it's better off left alone.

No, and he sure as hell didn't have sex with his landlady. It was him seeing himself as a kid through the other kid that made him leave the landlady alone.

It would actually make sense, Rorschach is a very hypocritical individual, is it so crazy that he rambles on and on about how sex is evil and then gets home and bangs the landlady?

Yes.

I can think of no circumstances under which Rorschach would engage in sexual intercourse with anyone. If he did, he would have to do so knowingly, thus forcing the recognition that he really is as zealous and hypocritical as people say he is. In the text, we saw that this realization was enough to drive him to non-existence.

Therefore, if Rorschach really was the father of the landlady's child or had sex with any woman, he would have killed himself long before the graphic novel took place.

he cant not be dead,if he was still alive then that would change the story(again) so technically,he should stay dead and not live on. RORSCHACH ZOMBIE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

It's extremely unlikely he would be a father for the reasons previously mentioned. I suppose there's always artificial insemination, but I doubt he even masturbates.

That's the most ludicrous thing I've read today. The landlady worked the same profession has Kovacks' mother, hence the five children by five different fathers. She'd be charging HIM, not the other way around.

Walter finds sex so distasteful that fatherhood is out of the question.

lol. Well of course that is true but I mean in terms of his personality and what not.

If Rorschach was my dad it means that he would have died when I was only 1 year old. :( My dad did actually have a dangerous encounter in 1985 so it makes me sad to think about that. :( Some guy made his way into my dad's office and attacked at him with a knife but he failed thankfully.

Does he really thinkg that ALL sex is evil? It's not like everyone that has sex is a whore or something.

Anyway, I just saw this article and thought I'd post it here:

Link: http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/34025056/

Article:

Quote:
Dad accused of killing son over sex abuse claim
Dad reportedly irate upon hearing son had sexual contact with toddler

HIGHLAND PARK, Mich. - A 37-year-old father irate over hearing his 15-year-old son had sexual contact with a 3-year-old girl made the teen strip at gunpoint, marched him to a vacant lot and shot him to death despite pleas from the boy and his mother, a relative said.

Michigan authorities filed a first-degree murder charge Wednesday against Jamar Pinkney Sr. in the shooting death Monday of Jamar Pinkney Jr. in the Detroit enclave of Highland Park.

Defense attorney Corbett O'Meara said prosecutors should consider evidence of the father's state of mind over the sex abuse report.

"If something were to happen that would cause a reasonable person to lose control of himself, that is something the prosecution would have to take into account," O'Meara said outside Highland Park District Court.

Tensions were high in the courtroom Wednesday as the handcuffed suspect was led into the room for the arraignment, which lasted less than a minute.

"No, No, No," one female relative cried before a police officer escorted her out.

‘Hard to deal with’
Judge Brigette Officer entered a not guilty plea for Pinkney, who's also charged with assault, and ordered him jailed without bond until a preliminary examination Dec. 1.

"This is something that's hard to deal with for all the parties concerned, including the police," police Chief Ted Caldwell said afterward. "Highland Park is a small city. These are people who have been members of the community for years."

Caldwell said the sexual misconduct allegation that led to the confrontation wasn't part of the police investigation.

The shooting happened Monday night in a vacant lot in the once-prosperous city of 16,000, where decay, abandonment, fires and demolition have eaten away at many of the sprawling homes. Highland Park recently exited years of state financial oversight.

Visitors built an impromptu memorial at the shooting site. Two votive candles sat amid 10 stuffed animals, including two white teddy bears with red hearts embroidered with, "I love you."

The boy's mother, Lazette Cherry, told the Detroit Free Press that her son told her he had improper sexual contact with the girl.

"I called and told his father. This isn't something you sweep under the rug," she said.

Cherry said the elder Pinkney arrived at the home with a gun, ordered his son to strip and marched him outside despite her protests.

"He got on his knees and begged, ‘No, Daddy, no,’ and he pulled the trigger," Cherry said.

Cherry did not immediately respond to a phone message Wednesday from The Associated Press seeking comment.


I wonder what Rorschach would do if he was a dad and his kid commits a HORRIBLE crime like that. >_<

It's sad though....but yeah it makes me wonder about Rorschach. I wonder if he would react like that if he was a dad and his kid does that.

I think Rorschach would have rules, extremely strict ones, about anything concerning the birds and the bees. "Ask questions if needed...any 'experimenting' and you lose something you'd rather keep..."

"...Love you too, Dad..."


Either that or he could give the same answer my dad always gave me: "Go ask your mother!"
