fearful symmetry

Is this the best chapter of "Watchmen" ?. Possibly so, at least from the standpoint of the structure approach by the author. Recall that in this chapter follow the trail of the alleged murderer of masked through the investigation of one of the vigilantes, Rorschach .

Every good comic book fan Alan Moore and Dave Gibbons , published in 1986, knows that "fearful symmetry" as its name suggests has a symmetrical structure, ie the provision of bullets on the first page of the chapter is quite equal to the last page, the second corresponds to the penultimate, and so on along the same.

But Alan Moore was not satisfied with this peculiarity, but an entire chapter was leitmotiv on symmetries, reflections, mirrors, etc. Perhaps the reflection of the split personality of Rorschach, a little paranoid and Manichean.

already in cover and the first panel of page 1 begin details. What we see is the logo of the bar "The Rumrunner" reflected in a puddle. Besides the pirate symbol of skull and crossbones that represents R consists of two symmetrical. One more, the letters you see on page 5 of the newspaper lying on the ground are "tdt", has any meaning?.

Later, the signing of Rorschach in the notice that it leaves Moloch is symmetric. Do not forget either that the Rorschach mask itself as well as images of psychological test which names are too. With this data, we see that not only Moore are interested in this aspect but also the character moves obsessed with this topic.

All drawings we see on page 10 chapter, which Dan and Laurie eat "Gunga Diner" are a reflection of a mirror on the wall of the restaurant fast food.

In page 11, Rorschach, this time without his disguise, returned to play with symmetry staining towel ketchup, a little later in the same restaurant. Why this obsession of the protagonist? Even the spot of lunch in one of the highlights of your home follows this pattern.

Although it has nothing to do with the subject of this article, you can not stop that bastard review as Moore returns to play with the reader as it did at the end of the first chapter. In the central vignette page 12, the newsagent Conspiranoids exclaims "is that people do not see the signs?" . Look at who is in the background,;). On the same page, the pirate parallel plot, the castaway see your face reflected in marine waters.

Just start page 13, the reflection on the desktop of your Veidt secretary. By the way, how curious are the symbols of your Veidt, right?. Even the twin of his shirt in "V" forms a symmetrical design in the same table ("an unknown X?). And that's a way to polish the floor with balls!.

The following are the main pages chapter where we see the symmetrical structure of the bullet points mentioned at the beginning of the entry. So to speak, is where lies the mirror.

"Sure there are a lot of things that we do not realize," Moore another joke in the mouth of the newsagent as page 12.

In the following pages not only gives a symmetry in the structure but also in the script. The page 18 is a reflection on page 11 that rotates daily on the Rorschach and his hands (which appear in almost all these bullets). The page 19 and 10, in this case, the conversations between Dan and Laurie reflected in a mirror in his house. The pages 20 and 9 deal with two full page on the history of the shipwreck. The page 21 and 8 around the ideas of the newsagent. And page 22 and 7 on the detectives investigating the murder of Blake. In addition, this same page 22, we see that the name of the album that announces the sign held by the Fine detective is "Aoxomoxoa" word palindrome, attentive to the drawing of the skull, the number of case record Blake is also palindromic. To make matters worse, the number 801108 are symmetrical both horizontally and vertically.

To finish, the last page before the final appointment of a chapter, one of the policemen who arrested Rorschach says: "Everything is balanced." good epitaph for the story and leitmotiv.

As a final detail, the next chapter of "Watchmen" is entitled "The abyss stares back at you." Scary, huh?.
