Alan Moore reads Rorshach's Journal

Possibly the creepiest thing I've heard in some time....

Creepy, but the British accent blows the full suspension of disbelief for me. Still, a wonderful insight into Moore's vision of who Rorschach is.

Very ... well, "nice" isn't the right word.

Along similar lines, I once heard a recording of Tolkien reading a passage from The Lord of the Rings. What struck me most was that the
voice he gave Gollum sounded like Yoda.

This is fascinating. If ANYONE would know what the real emotional underpinning of the character Rorschach would be - it's Moore. And the way he reads this
is about as creepy as I would've imagined it! There are only two (minor) things that don't quite fit. One - his British accent. And Moore's voice
is more age-roughened than Rorschach's should be. Aside from those two minor caveats (which are understandable and can't be helped), it's
surprising how much the movie voice and this are similar!
