Rorschach by Tom King and Jorge Fornes: Deluxe Edition

The truth is never clean, and the mask reveals more than it hides.

Tom King (Mister Miracle) and Jorge Fornés (Batman) dismantle the myth of Rorschach with this psychological thriller that blurs the line between conviction and delusion, presented in DC’s Deluxe Edition format and packed with never-before-seen bonus material.

It's been 35 years since Ozymandias dropped a giant interdimensional squid on New York City, killing thousands and destroying the public's trust in heroes once and for all. And since that time, one figure in a fedora, mask, and trench coat has become a divisive cultural icon.

So what does it mean when Rorschach reappears as an assassin trying to kill a candidate running against President Robert Redford? Who is the man behind the mask, and why is he acting this way? It's up to one detective to uncover the true identity of this would-be killer—and it will take him into a web of conspiracies involving alien invasions, disgraced do-gooders, mystic visions, and yes, comic books.

Collects Rorschach #1–12 and exclusive bonus material. | Tom King is an Eisner Award–winning writer known for redefining modern superhero storytelling in critically acclaimed works such as Batman, Mister Miracle, and Human Target.

Jorge Fornés is a Spanish artist acclaimed for his grounded, minimalist style and masterful panel composition.
