It's admittedly subtle. Issue 5, page 17, the newsvendor is talking about there being "all sorts of things we never notice". If you look carefully, Rorschach (in his civvies) is in the background, checking for Moloch's message to meet -- basically the last hint of his identity before it is revealed on-screen.
I don't recall Rorschach's identity being a thing to figure out.
It's not something one *has* to do, but it's fascinating on a re-read, because he is *everywhere*. If you watch for him carrying his "The End is Nigh" sign, he's practically omnipresent in the first half of the story. But he's usually in the background, so it's very easy to overlook him. It adds a lot of overtones to the story, realizing that he's there, making use of the fact that nobody pays attention to the crazy guy with the doomsday sign...
