The sarcasm is lost on the vigilante, although at least he finds the statement absurd enough that he ignores it completely, regarding it as little more than fatigue-induced ramblings without purpose behind it. Whistling past the graveyard. The information is of more interest, and he focuses in on this instead, ink shifting without any clear direction as he processes.

Smecker's description matches what Rorschach saw himself, and he makes a "hurm" of agreement. It doesn't occur to him to think there might be more than one; one is bad enough, and while that in itself isn't enough to indicate there is only one in existence, it's all the information he has so far. "Inhuman countenance, more than human capabilities. Will remember."

The warning catches him off-guard, however. "Don't put much stock in superstition. Forgive if doubt effectiveness of blind faith." Another pause. "Suspect more than one?"
