Part of the point of the pirate story was to illustrate the lack of superhero comics in the Watchmen universe. Also to give you a connection to the people Ozymandias killed. (both the newsseller and the boy reading the comic die in the phony alien invasion.) I do not recall a parallel between the pirate story and Rorshach's death. There may be one. i will try and dig up my trade paperpack and look for one.
