"What can you see?" (panel 7, page 1, chapter 6).
In this disturbing panel, Gibbon's has illustrated a dog that has had an ax split his head, and the picture is symmetrical. As the reader already knows, Rorschach wears a mask that is always changing, but is also symmetrical. In fact, the entirety of chapter six shows the importance of the symbol of symmetry. Moore and Gibbons could be hinting at several different things. The repetition of history, the uniformity of man, individual lives, all possible motifs that are being illustrated in this panel. This points to the deeper meaning of the novel, man kind is flawed.

can you take any of those things toward a potential deeper solution or establish what each of those ideas (repetition of history, uniformity of man, individualism) mean in brief?
