In the wake of FINAL CRISIS, the Tattooed Man, who has the ability to animate any tattoo on his body into a horrifying weapon, is considered a hero for the first time in his life. At first, the rewards from his new lifestyle are a welcome change from the rest of what his existence has been, but soon the pressure to stay above temptation and evil start to wear him down. Matters are quickly complicated when he wakes up in the middle of the night to find his body covered in unfamiliar tattoos that seem to have a life of their own. In this collection of the 6-issue miniseries from newcomer writer Eric Wallace (TV's "Eureka") and artist Fabrizio Fiorentino, the Tattooed Man finds himself in the middle of a life and death struggle with his own powers and the master plan they seem to have for him - whether he likes it or not! Will he embrace the hero life? Or fall back into his petty criminal ways?
