...heart, this is a detective story: Who killed Eddie Blake (Jeffrey Dean Morgan), a.k.a. the Comedian? The main sleuth is Rorschach (Jackie Earle Haley), whose shifting-inkblot mask ill conceals a violent temper and a questing spirit. Dr. Manhattan (Billy Crudup) is not much help, preoccupied as he is with helping another superhero, Ozymandias (Matthew Goode), in a secret experiment that may save the world or put a big hole in it.
