Those are two guys, and their behavior is not admirable. Basically no other superheroes kill, that one time WW snapped Max Lord's neck excepted.

Most of Wildstorm kills.

That's a cutesy name for a psychotic fascist based on Mr. A. Ditko and his ****ing Objectivism....

Good to see Watchmen fanboyism hasn't faded.

Joker stomps.

I'd love to see what rorshach does to joker if he beats him.

The parts of Wildstorm that weren't riffs on existing properties at the other publishers are gone now.

You guys know what I mean. Not killing is sort of a big line for guys like Batman; icing people isn't an admirable trait to be celebrated.

And the larger statement of persistent supervillains is that you can never actually, finally defeat evil.

Seriously, Rorschack would not give a ****. He was well beyond joker's reach.

incorrect. rorschach and people like him whos view of things is incredibly black and white are actually very easily manipulated. and suddenly i dont care because im too lazy to explain the rest

no they are not. did you not read the novel? the life of trauma he endured and the nihilistic epiphany he underwent after that girl was killed forged a personality beyond reach. he wouldn't give a **** about the joker's atempts to confound his sense of right and wrong. Rorschack's worldview and conviction required no outside validation and were unfattered by criticism, common sense and even reason itself. no apparent contradiction in his actions is gonna faze him, he'll wtfpawn the joker.

Plus I don't see where Joker will get the opportunity to play mindgames.

He's also a guy that would rather be killed than compromise, and that is very easy to manipulate indeed.

If you'll recall, the overarching plot is specifically about him and others being manipulated.

Joker isn't in the same position as Ozy was though. And in the end the only thing that saved Ozy from Rorschach was the fact that Ozy could beat Walter's ass in a straight fight, something that can't be said for Joker.

I see, and how would the joker manipulate Rory into dying rather than compromising in a fistfight exactly? Ozzie had a decade of one-sided prep to play everyone including a god adn his atempt at manipulating Rorschack into compromising failed.
