The 2011-2012 opening storyline of Scott Snyder and Greg Capullo's Batman run, appearing in Batman #1-11 as part of DC's New 52 relaunch. The story introduces the Court of Owls, a secret society of Gotham's wealthiest families who have controlled the city from the shadows for centuries using immortal assassins called Talons.
