I imagine one looking the other in the mirror -- Bookchin on the left, Rothbard on the right.
See Murray Rothbard here, delivering a presentation at the Texas State Libertarian Conference in 1989.
See Murray Bookchin also at a Libertarian Party conference (yes the LP) here.
Also see this interviewwith Bookchin back in 1981.
They stand on opposite sides of the anarchist fence, although I was a little surprised how far Bookchin championed individualism at the LP conference.
Noam Chomsky has been quite influenced by Bakunin (as I recall) and also Bookchin. Here's the first of a five part Chomsky interview. You can easily navigate from that to the remaining parts.
