“The Minute of Truth, Chapter One: Eight Minutes”

In "The Minute of Truth, Chapter One: Eight Minutes," a young Daniel uncovers Nite Owl’s secret identity and convinces him to train as a hero—only for the original Nite Owl to retire, passing the mantle to his protégé. Years later, the new Nite Owl steps into a world of legacy and duty, forging alliances with other heroes and joining forces with Rorschach in a story that redefines what it means to wear the mask. Written by J. Michael Straczynski and illustrated by Andy Kubert with inks by Joe Kubert, color by Brad Anderson, and letters by Nick Napolitano, the cover by Adam Hughes captures the weight of this pivotal moment.
