The Silencer Vol. 1: Code of Honor (New Age of Heroes)

She's known as the Silencer, and for years she used her deadly skills and sound-dampening abilities to keep the criminal organization Leviathan in check as Talia al Ghul's personal assassin. Six years ago she thought she'd accomplished the impossible--she got out. She took on a new identity as Honor Guest, got married, had a kid. It was bliss.

But bliss never lasts. A power struggle within Leviathan has removed Talia from command, and the new leaders aren't as willing to simply let Honor walk away. Now, to protect the family that means everything to her, she has to go back to the life she swore she was done with.

The underworld had better watch out. The Silencer is back, and she knows what needs to be done to keep her family safe...and there's no one better or deadlier at what she does! Collects The Silencer #1-6.

Dan Abnett lives and works in Maidstone, Kent. After graduating from Oxford, he worked for a while as an editor of comics and children's books before turning to writing full time. In the dozen or so years since then, he has written for such a diverse range of characters--including Scooby-Doo, Thunderbirds, Conan the Barbarian, The X-Men, Johnny Bravo, Batman, Rupert the Bear, Doctor Who, Mr. Men, The Terminator and Postman Pat--that he is now clinically bewildered. He created the popular series Sinister Dexter, which he continues to write, along with other strips, for 2000 AD, and is currently writing Aquaman and Titans for DC Comics as part of DC Universe Rebirth.
