No he's not, all of these examples are so forced. I'd rather believe that he's gay or that Manhattan is his dad or literally any other retarded theory.
Minutemen is bretty gud
Which one of these is false though? How is Rorschach living among the poor or dying far fetched?
>Manhattan is his dad
So, he's the son of God too.
He even dies in the crucifix position.
He's a martyr. That doesn't make him Jesus.
This thread is retarded.
What nonsense.
You can find Jesus parallels in any character if you stretch hard enough and ignore the all the differences.
The why aren't there any for Dr. Manhattan, Comedian or nightowl?
In the most literary ironic sense, yes, OP is correct
Give before watchmen and the movie a try. Stay away from doomsday clock or hbo series if you cant handle bad ending plot and fanfiction-tier writing.
This is the only good adaptation: youtube.com
More of a Moses than a Jesus
>lived among the poor and the downtrodden
Whom he fucking despised
The opening of the comic is literally him jacking off to the idea of watching the poor people in the city die begging him for help
He only despised the libs and commies, who are usually rich. Jesus hated moneylenders too.
Jesus was killed by Jews. Adrian represented the scheming Jews.
>headcanon
He hated everyone.
He also never ever turned the other cheek, which of course he didn't because he's Mister A and not Jesus.
>Fights for good
He fights for personal satisfaction, to soothe the psyche that shattered when he found that little girl. At one point he may have "fought for good" in the more traditional sense that someone like Dan would intend (though he's also mainly selfish, and this lack of pure altruism is one of the main themes of the book), but that time is long past by the events of the story.
>Born of an ambiguous father
lol wat
Jesus' father wasn't ambiguous
>Betrayed
By whom? Dan?
>Dies for the sins of mankind
He dies for his own stubbornness
And lo, Jesus did see the lepers lying in the street. And he went to them. Lying in the accumulation of their own refuse, in great suffering through no fault of their own, these poor cretins begged the Son of God for a miracle.
And lo, Jesus did growl "NO YEAEARRRHHGHGHGH" and beat a nearby man half to death for littering.
Jesus was friends with prostitutes.
>Jesus hated moneylenders
lol wat
Jesus was pissed off that moneylenders were operating in a synagogue not that usury exists
>closet homosexual
That's like saying Jesus died of his own stubbornness. That's not being stubborn. That's just standing up for your cause.
>That's like saying Jesus died of his own stubbornness
No it isn't. Jesus was given up to Roman authorities by a trusted ally
Rorschach was given an express warning of what would happen if he intended to reveal Veidt's plan by at best a neutral party if not an openly antagonistic one
He was emotionally betrayed by Dan but that has fuck all to do with his death
Pax Americana.
Jesus died because he knew it was the only way to save humanity. Rorschach's death didn't change anything, his journal did and the journal was sent before he knew what was going on and what was going to happen.
>some leftist drew this and thought it was cute
>some leftist drew this and thought it was cute
Yeah but Alan Moore is an occultust weirdo who probably hates Jesus so if that symbolism was on purpose it was to mock him.
Reminder that his name is literally "Rorschach": Something the whole point of which is to provide insight into the observer's mental state.
