I was talking about Ozy's plot, which is the main driving factor of the story, He kills million to delay the inevitable, I feel this is the main theme as it ties into nearly every other character's story as well.
The sum of all the problems that the super hero's are dealing with boils down to them fighting something that inevitable, Rorsarch fights crime that only gets worse, Silk Specter fights the ideal of being a super hero despite being the child of two supers, Nite Owl fights to stay in retirement even though it's inevitable he'll return to work, Jon fights to remain a human though it's inevitable he will abandon them. Everyone has a fight set in stone, and through the story that crumbles and they're forced to face reality.
