Nick got this from my Tumblr, but in my opinion if it came from 4chan, you probably don’t wanna know the original source :)

Damnit, this popped up and I intended to come in here to say “what is this, 4chan now?” but it appears the source has already been properly credited. Fie.

…also, to kick off the inevitable Alignment Argument, I might point out that whoever thought Rorschach is chaotic is off their block. If anything I’d peg him as lawful neutral, though cases could be made for either of the other flavors of lawful, as well.

R April 30, 2009 at 6:59 pm: I second this, although I might also lean toward calling him Lawful Evil.

Also, the description of True Neutral is wrong. Neutral sees all the other alignments as necessary parts of the whole and seeks to preserve the balance. Neutral is often represented as merely completely self-centered, which is in fact Neutral Evil.

I think Chaotic Good should be Travis Bickle from Taxi Driver. Actually i don’t see Rorschach and Bickle as that far apart.

I’d have to say either Han Solo or Malcom Reynolds would make a fine Rorschach replacement in that chart.

Come ON! I will so argue all day long against John for Lawful Good. He’s too chaotic…although noble he killed himself for the cause I’ll admit. Don’t ya think Spock or Joe Friday (from Dragnet) or even I dunno Superman since we’re throwing comic books/graphic novels into the mix, would be a more accurate representation.

Oh, I miss old school D&D – reminds me of Dr. Pepper and long long nights of never-ending debates.

Hah! When I first saw Meredith’s comment, I thought for a second she was talking about John Law! Who clearly is too chaotic for Lawful Good, also. Ironic, if you think about it.
