Its comic book excess, Ozymandius was just a world class athelete, the same reason the guys in 300 could do the shit they did.
They did leave out the explanation of Rorschach's mask - "Rorschach's mask (which he refers to as his "face") consisted of a specialized fabric, one that was actually two layers of fabric with viscous black and white fluids trapped between them. The fluids remained in constant motion, being affected by heat and pressure, however the black and white colors never combined to form gray. The patterns formed by the fluids also maintained a constant symmetrical pattern down the midline of whatever shape the fabric had been formed into."
There is a backstory about Kitty Genovese (the woman who was killed in NYC in real life while the neighbors all watched without helping) involving why he started being a vigolante.
