It’s here! Spinning off his stellar, ongoing run on Batman and the epic, winding story arc that had comic fans singing his praises, Scott Snyder and artist Guillem March unleash perhaps the most anticipated of DC’s Zero issues…
TALON #0
A new series featuring the Court of Owls’ unstoppable killing machine! Meet Calvin Rose, the only Talon ever to escape the grasp of the Court of Owls. This former assassin just wants to live a normal life…but that’s impossible, since he’s being hunted by his former masters!
