A new menace from the Canadian Rockies has reared its head, threatening everything and everybody that crosses its path. It's a menace so powerful, so evil, that only the toughest, most ruthless of super-heroes can ever hope to defeat it. That hero is THE BUTCHER. The Butcher is the newest hero in the DC Universe...and the most mysterious. Who is he? Where did he come from? There are answers to those questions...but don't expect them to come easily. Because nothing is ever easy for the Butcher.
