I was just messing with you. I would never in a million years mistake you for a Batman fan, despite your praise of things like the Arkham series, which I've always chalked up more to the crafting of the game rather than anything done by the star character.
I'd debate some of what you said, but really don't see the point anymore. I already come off as way more of a fan of Batman than I actually am (I've honestly been pretty sick of him - with a couple of exceptions - for a while now), and none of our Batman conversations ever end well anyway.
It's interesting that you've heard people say Rorschach was a parody of Batman. I've personally never heard that before. I've always heard that he was based on the original vision of the character he was originally supposed to be (The Question) and his precursor Mr. A. I don't even think Batman really had that broody psycho personality until The Dark Knight Returns, which was published the same year Watchmen started.
