It all starts with Angela Spica, an engineer driven to the brink of death by the transhuman implants buried in her body. When she steps in to save the life of another, she will bring the storm down upon her, from the world's most lethal assassin to its most sprawling secret agency to the soldiers in its most ancient war. What mysteries bind these extraordinary individuals? What sinister forces threaten to tear them apart? What brave new universe will they forge from blood, brawn, brains and bullets?

The Wild Storm Vol. 2
The reimagining of the WildStorm Universe's legendary antiheroes takes even more unexpected twists when plans older than human life itself begin to unfold!

But why is the carefully negotiated peace falling apart in a series of bloody encounters and high-tech infiltrations?
The mysterious Jacob Marlowe knows more than he's telling…but what he is willing to share is enough to lead the Engineer and her allies into incredible danger. And Henry Bendix, the Weatherman who heads Skywatch, sees an opportunity in the war that's coming, one he'll do anything to take for himself!

Issue 1
The Wild Storm (2017-) #1
A troubled woman, barred by her employer from continuing her research, walks miserably through New York City. It takes her a moment to notice that everybody else is looking up. A man has been thrown from the upper floor of the Halo skyscraper.
And that woman-Angela Spica, sick from the transhuman implants she's buried in her own body-is the only person who can save him.
What she doesn't know is that the act of saving that one man will tip over a vast and secret house of cards that encloses the entire world, if not the inner solar system. This is how the Wild Storm begins, and it may destroy covert power structures, secret space programs and even all of human history.
New York Times best-selling writer Warren Ellis (TRANSMETROPOLITAN, RED, THE AUTHORITY) returns to DC to curate Jim Lee's WildStorm world, with this debut issue resetting the WildStorm universe with new iterations of Grifter, Voodoo, the Engineer, Jenny Sparks and others.

If only she hadn't unknowingly foiled an assassination planned by her boss. If only her boss wasn't the one person more interested in the Engineer's transhuman implants than in her life.
It's all going very wrong, very quickly. There's going to be more blood.

A storm is building. And through it all, a mysterious woman crackles though the electrical devices that inhabit our lives, slipping among the invisible networks of the world.

And IO director Miles Craven is distracted by many troubles and questions, including: What was Project Thunderbook?
Issue 11

The Wild CAT must reinfiltrate the Hightower site in order to prevent their own exposure—and also the roll out of a new global surveillance tool that will cement I.O.'s dominance over the planet. But if you're a bunch of aliens and an ex-spook who faked his own death, you can probably be forgiven for thinking about your own weird skin first. Jackie King and the I.O. analysis team could take a leaf out of their book, because they're about to undertake a cyber-attack on Skywatch, the managers of outer space, that could easily get them killed...
