Some thoughts about Rorschach #5

Who is in control of the whole nation?

Rorschach tried to go after the President but there's a reason for that, a reason that could connect all of the Watchmen.

Not getting much clearer despite of the amount of content there is.

Tom King offers a new dense installment where he doesn't necessarily progress the story that much. There's a lot to unpack here like what was the role of the President of this particular period in time was as well as his connection to the Comedian and how that could be related to Rorschach. King's background as CIA officer is fully realized here with an in-depth political investigation that involves many different characters.

That being said, I'm getting a bit tired of the overly obscure writing that doesn't really gives you many details about what's actually happening and plays a bit too much with the idea of this being a mystery. I don't think each issue gives you much insight about the plot itself aside from a few cool references to the Watchmen universe and comics as a whole.

Jorge Fornes remains in art duties and his work is still strong with detailed characters and storytelling.

Aside from that, this needs more clarity as a whole. Hope next chapter we see some revelations.
