As the detective digs deeper into the mystery behind Rorschach and his sidekick, the story becomes about not what they wanted to do but why they started on their murderous path. As more witnesses emerge, the stranger Laura’s history is revealed to be. Tough times made her want to kill a presidential candidate, and she did a lot of damage herself when fighting back.
Rorschach #8 seems somewhat paradoxical, as although the detective is learning more details about the attempted assassination of Turley, the mystery somehow gets murkier instead of clearer. This title nothing like you would expect from a Watchmensequel, but is absolutely brilliant anyways. Read Full Review
Rorschach #8 is yet another brilliant chapter of a brilliant book. King has done a great job of giving this book a reason to exist- its one of the most vital and important comics being published right now, using Watchmen and its mystery to talk about how conspiracies and lies can poison people. Fornes does a marvelous job with the art, capturing the insanity and mundanity of the whole thing. Rorschach is a wonderful book, and this is another perfect chapter. Read Full Review
After a few thumb twiddling issues, this one gets the series back on track and reinvigorates the mystery and intrigue. Read Full Review
This is the work of two masters, and it may go down as one of the best DC stories of the modern day. Read Full Review
DC Comics' RORSCHACH #8 is an incomplete picture. It taunts us with the information we don't have while overloading us with information that doesn't fit. This creative team impresses upon us what it feels like to look for the truth in a sea of misinformation. They use their ordered, clean storytelling to show us the chaos beneath the surface.

This is a great book from cover to cover. Read Full Review
Rorschach #8 is another great issue that adds to the mystery and gives you a lot to think about between issues, fantastic art that makes you question the reality of the situation, and a major puzzle that is begging to be solved. This is building my hype, so I can't wait till we start getting some answers. Read Full Review
Rorschach #8 isnt the best issue of the series, but does serve as a good filler to get us to the next part of the mystery. Tom King, Jorge Forns, Dave Stewart and Clayton Cowles continue to intrigue as the mystery draws to a close. Read Full Review
I just am not a fan of this weird trend of using actual comics creators as fictional characters, especially when they are being dragged out of their house or murdered by police. Read Full Review
Excellent series but this issue is a waste. It'll take you way too long to read it and by the end, you're going to feel cheated out of your time. You find out one little thing and that's it. Read Full Review
It keeps getting better and better...don't screw this one Tom King!
One of the best comics roght now.
Took me a minute to align my brain to it but we got there in the end.
Really good issue, but I do wonder where this is going to go.
Such a bore, endless exposition and the "twist" is sooo predictable.
An interrogation? The only thing I liked was the callbacks to the mask becoming the wearer's face.
I'm done man. And Rorschach is one of my favorite comic book characters. This wacky story is losing it's legs.
Anybody but Tom King should have handled this.
This book should have went straight to GN - maybe that would have saved it from being a blemish to Watchmen's legacy.
