The Psycho

Over a decade ago with this acclaimed super-powered near-future thriller.

Reluctant CIA spook Jake Riley finds himself following the movements of super-powered agents known as FCOs (Freelance Costumed Operatives) or "psychos", who have not only shaped history but have formed their own tiny super-power island nation. When Jake’s cover is blown and his fiancé murdered, his training kicks into survival mode. How can a normal spy combat super-powered freaks with insane powers armed to the teeth with the latest weapons technology? By becoming one of the very things he hates – a PSYCHO.

Jake survives an expensive and statistically fatal chemical modification that physically transforms him into an FCO. Though there’s no handbook for being a ‘Psycho’, Jake manages to turn the tables on his pursuers, despite struggles with an emerging maniacal split personality and powers that announce themselves without any warning. Jake’s grip on reality slips further out of control as he realizes nothing in this dangerous world is what it seems.

After several Industry award Nominations and an army of fans who’ve demanded the return of Jake and his lethally insane alter-ego, the graphic novel that put these two creators on the map is finally available in one volume, complete with production art gallery, introduction and other extras.
