    Move Over Dick ,Theres Talon !

    The Great: The greatness of this issue started on page 1. WOW. Does March know how to draw a talon..Pages of pages of fan-static art. We get run into the same talon that Batgirl fought. Man she's tough cookie. Also get into the history of Gotham. Really cool stuff. Also another Famous DC City is mentioned,loved how james and scott planned that out. Loved the dialogue between Casey Washington (the talon) and Calvin. James actually gives her a little origin . If you were wondering if Calvin has supporting cast , he does! The action sequences were top notch in my opinion.

    The Bad: They didnt double talon this month!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    The Verdict: Read it , you dont even really need issue 0 either. This is a great starting point and Dick has some serious competition as the favorite prince of Gotham? Obviously Dick is been around a lot longer but this guy Calvin has a lot potential.

At the same time, Calvin obviously has more going on than just his escape artistry even if that is his headlining feature. Does this issue round out the character and show that Ta...

      Talon #1 - The Gotham Trap by ashlor84 on November 28, 2012

      I must admit i was pretty skeptical when DC announced an all new series based on Talons, the unstoppable assassins we discovered in Scott Snyder's Court of Owls. I mean, the Bat universe already had enough series (11 were implicated in the "Night of the Owls" crossover), did we really need a new one, based on something (the Court, the Talons) we've been fattened with for almost a year? Besides, it was James Tynion IV, Scott Snyder's former student, that was done the task to write this series (de...
