MINISERIES PREMIERE
Ten months ago, the Richard Roe murders shocked the city of Pittsburgh. In the months since, the killings have sparked a dangerous political movement, copycat killers, and a masked vigilante who's still determined to hold the powerful accountable. Not a symbol. Not a hero. They could be anyone. They're NO/ONE.

Fun international wetworks team book. Ram V does fine work here and the art is pretty darn good. New characters are always fun to see if they become memorable or just wind up as an afterthought. I guess we'll find out over the next few months. It's listed as a six issue mini. Fingers crossed it succeeds cause it's a style of book I think the DC universe can benefit from.
