In a world where superheroes once roamed freely, a society disillusioned with vigilantism has outlawed these "costumed adventurers." In 1985, the murder of former hero 'The Comedian' catches the attention of the lone outlawed vigilante 'Rorschach.' As Rorschach delves into the investigation, he inadvertently draws his retired colleagues 'Nite Owl,' 'Silk Spectre,' 'Dr. Manhattan,' and 'Ozymandias' back into a world of conflict, mystery, and danger. Their pasts collide, alliances are tested, and a world on the verge of war hangs in the balance.
