Released in September 2013, this comic was a part of DC Comics' month-long \"Villains Month\" initiative during The New 52 era. Unlike most Villains Month books that cross over with Forever Evil, this issue stays isolated within the mythic universe of Brian Azzarello's acclaimed Wonder Woman run to deliver a tragic, brutal origin story for the series' ultimate big bad: The First Born.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eKey Storyline Points\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul style=\"margin-top: 0in;\" type=\"disc\"\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"mso-list: l1 level1 lfo1; tab-stops: list .5in;\"\u003eInterrogating a Broken God: The issue begins in the present day with Apollo, the newly crowned King of Olympus, receiving a severely beaten and bloody First Born.
