Cool, but I would've liked him to be more prominent.
cool, reminds me of the joker poster a lot, and it'll be slammed relentlessly for this soon
I don't think that's a bad thing though

adjusted brightness/contrast and tried to remove cyan color
 
I get a Taxi Driver feel from that poster and I like it.

It has a similar feel to the comic con Rorschach poster (the one based on the comic book promo). They both show Rorschach from behind. I prefer the comic con poster to this one though.
 
Reminds me that TDK character-poster with Joker, awesome :up:
 
whats dans poster gonna be a fat naked dan eating sugar cubes!!!
 
with Laurie in the background saying "Don't Worry It Happens To Alot of Men"
 
Rorschach's the sugar cube guzzler, Dan just needs them for his post-coital coffee.
 
Did anyone else notice that the cars seem to be parked on the 'wrong' side of the street? As though they were driving on the left, not on the right.

I don't know if maybe there are parts of NYC that are like that, or maybe if that's how Watchmen always was and I never noticed. If not, though, it's odd.

hey, that's weird!

maybe rorschach was in merry old london
 
i dont really care for this poster. theres nothing special about it. just a silhouette standing in the street. some people around here may be able to appreciate it a bit by having an affinity for rorshach. but to anyone less than familiar with the material (i.e. vast majority of the general population) it'd be a very boring and uneventful poster. myself even being very familiar with the material find it boring and not very engaging.

I see your point, and I agree, however much I like it it isn't going to be appealing to mr. random person

they need something more eye-catching and appealing
 
I think i would've preferred it with Rorschach facing outwards, as mentioned earlier, like the taxi driver poster. Still have him all shadow-y, and only just being able to make out the blot-face. Seeing his mask would've went well with the tagline about seeing 'it's true face'.

I think the whole point was to have him with his back against a wall, ready to take on an entire city. And we are positioned behind him, watching, which makes a lot of sense considering how the story is told.

Yeah, you're right, that is the intended effect, and it does work. I think i just wanted to see what it would look like with the mask sitting alongside that particular quotation, given that Rorscach always refers to his mask as his true face, thought that notion would've went well with seeing the city's true face.
I do like the poster though.
 
I wonder when these posters will be in stores.. I'll definitely get Rorschach's one.
 
I think it would've been cooler if he had his hands in his pockets, and maybe facing us, with a darkened face
