The mysterious title teased as the latest project for former "Batman" writer Tom King and artist Jorge Fornes has been revealed - a "Rorschach" 12 issue miniseries is coming from DC Black Label, and it adds yet another layer into the expanding "Watchmen" comic universe that was recently explored again in the events of "Doomsday Clock" and then through HBO's "Watchmen" sequel TV Series.
As reported by Newsarama - the new series is set 35 years after the events of the original "Watchmen" series by Alan Moore and Dave Gibbons, the story follows a world that distrusts superheroes, yet idolize the deceased Rosrschach - with many idolizing him yet his actions are far from that being the definition of a hero.
"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."
The first issue of "Rorschach" is set to be released by DC on October 13.
