Guest Comedian

us
Eddie Blake

The Comedian is a masked avenger who was active for forty-five years through the aid of government-sponsored activities and the press conjuring him into a patriotic symbol of war and victory.

A cigar-chomping, gun-toting vigilante turned paramilitary agent, Edward Blake is described variously as “deliberately amoral” with a “practised cynicism”, meaning that he usually has little regard for social conventions or human life.

Always in character as the Comedian, he describes the world as a sadistic joke that only he understands, but in the end, his practised cynicism is shattered when he discovers a plot that he regards as a “practical joke” even he can’t believe anyone would pull.

Press

Man goes to doctor. Says he's depressed. Says life seems harsh and cruel. Says he feels all alone in a threatening world . Doctor says, 'Treatment is simple. Great clown Pagliacci is in town tonight. Go and see him.' Man bursts into tears. Says, 'But doctor… I am Pagliacci'.

Rorschach

Once you realize what a joke everything is, being the Comedian is the only thing that makes sense.
