Dolores Shairp was Walter Kovacs' landlady and neighbor. She had five children apparently by five different fathers, and Kovacs suspected that she cheated on welfare.[1]

Biography[]

When it was revealed that Walter Kovacs was really Rorschach, Mrs. Shairp told the press that he had made sexual advances to her, although this was a lie, and also called him a "Nazi pervert". She showed to the camera his stock of right-wing New Frontiersman issues.[2] After Kovacs' subsequent escape, he accosted Shairp about this slander on his reputation, but did not attack her, presumably because her children were present.[3]

She (along with the rest of her five children) was probably killed in the 11/2 Psychic Shockwave event that took the lives of millions of New Yorkers.

Trivia[]

  • Dolores Shairp's neck often had purple bite marks, presumably from sexual encounters from men;
