TALON

Talon started training with the Great Owl when he was 10 (1955) and first put on the Talon costume at age 12 (1957). He adventured with tGO for the next 5 years in Boston. The Great Owl disappeared when Talon was 17 (1962), the same year Talon appeared in Seattle as "Eagle Owl"! He had patrolled the city of Seattle for 3-4 monthes but then when the Great Owl disappeared he rushed back to Boston. Lost because he'd left tGO on bad terms and wasn't at his side when most needed Eagle Owl ended his career after only 3-4 monthes and neither were seen between 1962-65. Harlan scoured the city, then coast, and parts of the world but nothing...

Strobe was born in 1965 - Talon was 20. Talon left the limelight for the years between 62-65. In 1965 still unhappy about letting tGO down he returned to the streets of Boston as Talon, this time a little darker not talking to the press and having upgraded his wing-harness, equipment and skills.

In 1985 Talon when Strobe was in college Talon was 40 and after 20 years of working the East Coast, fighting crime, defending Boston - he tracked down leads that pointed to the West Coast. Over the next 21 years he worked up and down the west coast working out of "the Roost" (an airfield in Seattle) but always calling Boston home.
