In an alternate world shaped by superheroes, the once-celebrated “costumed adventurers” have been banished by a society disenchanted with vigilantism. Now, in 1985, the murder of the Comedian—a hero who became a government agent—catches the attention of Rorschach, the last of the banished vigilantes. Rorschach’s investigation draws his retired colleagues—Nite Owl, Silk Spectre, Dr. Manhattan, and Ozymandias—into a conflict with their pasts, with one another, and with a mystery that threatens their lives and a world on the brink of war.
