The Verdict:

An emotionally satisfying story that plays out against a politically complex backdrop, this is an absorbing read and well worth a look.
The Blurb On The Back:

Cubicle-dwelling Wesley Gibson thought he was the same as everyone else. Wesley’s life changes the day he discovers he is the son of ‘The Killer’, a member of an underground fraternity of supervillains who have secretly been running the world since 1986.

Brought into the fraternity after his father is slain, Wesley comes into his own abilities as the new Killer and a veil is lifted from his eyes as he sees the world he never knew was there. In a world where all the superheroes are dead, Wesley joins the villains while trying to unravel the mystery of his father’s murder. Wesley Gibson is a son, a killer, a hero ... and WANTED.

The Verdict:

Some great ideas are on show here but it doesn’t have the complexity to make it a great graphic novel. Worth a look if you want to compare it to the movie.
