Before Watchmen

Watchmen is known as on of the best graphic novel of all time. There was a series called before watchmen that shows what happened before the events of watchmen.
pretty obviously, as the name suggests, before watchmen is about what happened before the events of the actual comic series watchmen took place. the following pictures are from the Rorschach part of the before watchmen mini series.

the character of rorschach is gritty and brutal. this character does not have any super powers nor is he rich so that he can afford any sort of luxuries for fighting crime for the poor. here you can see that he is swinging from a ladder that stopped at the second floor of a building. he is clearly running after someone he is chasing.

here is a scene about the night time and the busy life of a city. someone is inside the taxi that is on the focus of this scene. the taxi driver seems to be talking to the person riding the taxi. it can be the main protagonist or some other character in this story.

here we can see that people are walking along the streets of the busy night.it is raining and most of the people walking along the street, or crossing the street has an umbrella with them. in this particular scene, both the protagonist of the story, Rorschach and the main villain of the story is present. they are among the people who do not have an umbrella with them.

here we can see a citywide blackout. this indicates that there has been some disaster, either natural or man made. this is actually at the end of this short comic. the final showdown is about to happen between the main protagonist and the main villain. the entire city has gone dark and something bad is about to happen. if you have read the original watchmen graphic novel or have any idea about the story, then you already know what happens in the showdown between them.

 

here you can see a tiger on the loose inside a night club. you can easily deduce that the action has started and the tiger is a big part of it. in the background, there is a guy who sis raising his hand probably to something or someone poiting something lethal at him. there is also a body on the ground that can be seen over there. a guy is also seen to be running away from the tiger.  he has a gun, but he thinks that the gun wont be doing much good for him. we already know that rorschach does not have any special power or backup with him. so, this tiger was actually really helpful for him to get an upper hand on his enemies.
