DC Announces New Rorschach Comic Series!

Everyone’s favorite badass, Rorschach , will have a 12- issue series in October! The series will be written by Tom King and art by Jorge Fornés.

Here’s is what the series is about:

It’s been 35 years since Ozymandias was exposed for dropping a giant telepathic squid on New York City, killing thousands and ending the public’s trust in heroes once and for all. The Minutemen are gone; only their memory lives on. Especially the infamy of Rorschach, who has become a cultural icon since Dr. Manhattan turned him to dust.

So what does it mean when Rorschach reappears as part of a pair of assassins trying to kill the first candidate to oppose President Robert Redford in decades? Follow one determined detective as he walks backward in time, uncovering the identities and motives of the would-be killers, taking him deep into a dark conspiracy of alien invasions, disgraced do-gooders, mystical visions, and yes, comic books.

This series sounds like a lot of fun. I also wonder where it fits in continuity, like is this Rebirth Watchmen or is this taking place after the events of the 86 Watchmen comic? Guess we’ll get our answers soon enough.
