I hope you make a sequel and have the Comedian stalk Rorschach because he's intrigued and possibly a bit obssesed with him now. Oh, and Dan getting pissed off at knowing something happened but not knowing what.
You're reading my mind :) Writing Comedian is turning into a lesson in unreliable narrators, tho - how to get across the large percentage of his own motivations he's sure of (and smug self-satisfaction) as well as where he's fooling himself completely, and the leaks between the two. Especially given that he's now the old guy in the group instead of the teenager, and both hyper-aware and in denial of the inevitable deterioration of skills and confidence that awaits him.
Which, for writing fighting scenes, means he's both in nearly peak physical form and focusing on dirty tricks, so forget about anyone besting him with anything but a lucky shot for another decade or so :)
Thanks for both of your comments! I'm so blushing that someone would put so much thought into responding :)
