CANTO HC

Once Upon a Time a little tin slave with a clock for a heart broke all the rules-he found love, took a name, and escaped his masters, embarking on an epic journey to save his beloved. Though his adventure didn't turn out as planned, he returned to his people and led them to freedom. The freedom Canto won is in danger when he discovers his people's clocks will stop unless they return to captivity.

On their quest, they'll encounter old friends, relentless monsters, and the village of the mysterious Hollow Men. Canto and his friends must lift the curse and save their people before their time runs out. Eisner and GLAAD Media Award nominated writer David M.

A tiny clockwork hero on a quest for a heart continues fighting for love, freedom, and hope, gathering allies to face tyrannical forces in a fantastical modern fairytale. Still on the mend following his first confrontation with the Shrouded Man, Canto must search for allies to stand by his side in their inevitable final battle. And who could ask for better allies than the fearsome Giants? But to earn their allegiance, he'll need to solve the Labyrinth outside their city and slay the monster that lurks at its heart! Then, Canto and his friends must cross a bridge guarded by a mysterious bard. The price to pass? A story never heard in all the world! Series co-creators David M.
