Characters


Batman
When thinking of messed up characters, I thought of batman. I love the idea of his split personality. People argue he’s actually depicted as schizophrenic, which I fully agree with. His alter ego is meant to be Batman, however this eats him up and he is actually Batman, and Bruce Wayne is just a person he feels fit to be judged by the public eye. His messes up past of his parents being murdered sets the foundations of him becoming batman. He made a promise to them, that he feels always in debt of.


Rorschach
He’s actually one of my favourite characters from graphic novels.
He stinks. A calculated killer yet spontaneous. Driven character – hard as nails at 5’6.
No care for appearance. Bullied as a child. His mother was a prostitute.










Patrick bateman
A repressed wall street businessman.
He unleashes primal urges on unsuspecting victims as a reliefe of his frustration at his contempary lifestyle and the trap of the American yuppy dream.














Frank from ‘the wasp factory.’
Has odd religious rituals of his own inventions.
Uses sacrifice poles, ehich hang bodies heads of killed animals like rats. They define and protect the boarders of his territory according to him.
He’s cut off from society.
Very sexist views towards women.
Kills 3 children from his family as a child himself but see’s them as a matter of fact.
