I was going to start this with the Court of Owls nursery rhyme, but I believe I did that when we actually covered the original Snyder Court of Owls story, so instead you're just going to get my usual ramble. This week, Patreon backer Matt McThorn has a request, and it's stories of the Court of Owls and the sensational character find of 2012, Calvin Rose, the Talon turned hero. Who's that, you may ask if you weren't reading Batman related comics in 2012 and 2013? Well, listen here and find out. We also look at a one off that goes into some of the history of the Court and read their introduction to the DC Animated Universe.

Exquisite Dread (Batman and Robin V.2 # 23.2)

Scourge of Owls (Talon # 0-7)
