Wanted

Written by Mark Miller & JG Jones

Illustrated by Paul Mounts

Wesley Gibson is a loser in life. His boss employed a better person to do his job, and his girlfriend is running around with his best friend.  That’s what happens when your abandoned mother raises you as a passive weakling. All this changes one day when a woman named Fox enters his life.
Fox is a member of the Fraternity, an international organisation of elite supervillians that secretly rule the world. Until this point, Wesley was unaware that his estranged father was a member of the Fraternity and used the Killer as his pseudonym until he was murdered by an unknown person.
Professor Solomon Selzer , an eccentric scientist and head of the North and South American branches of the Fraternity, helps Wesley grasp his hidden abilities by encouraging him to shoot the wings off flies.
Wesley soon learns of the long war between superheroes and supervillians that his father fought in years before. After winning the war and forming the Fraternity, the supervillians used magic and cutting-edge technology to erase the public memory of the revolution. Wesley is soon plunged into secret and violent inner-sanctum of the Fraternity.
