Description
A sci-fi thriller about a next-gen form of psychiatry: 'subliminal hitmen' injected into your mind who hunt down the demons that haunt you. Ex-military sharpshooter Colin McClure is Mezign Corp's most recent recruit for the still-experimental (and often deadly) job of subliminal hitman. McClure is the perfect candidate for two reasons: a- he's a killing machine, and b- he lost his legs in the war, so subliminal-ops are his only way to see any action. But he's also a dangerous candidate for one reason unknown to Mezign: Colin's true motive is to enter the mind of his catatonic daughter and bring her out of a coma. From writer Tony Patrick (Batman And The Signal) and artist Ayhan Hayrula. Collects issues 1-5. "If you like smart, high-octane sci-fi, you'll love X'ed. Patrick and Hayrula create a thrilling world, where hitmen injected into your mind hunt down your inner demons - A book with as many twists and turns as there are in the labyrinth of the human brain. A huge achievement!" -Scott Snyder (Batman, Wytches)

About the Author
After a brief stint as an NBC page, Tony Patrick sold a feature-length screenplay to Hollywood and worked as a staff writer on a network sitcom. After a six-year hiatus in Europe and Southeast Asia, Tony returned stateside with two short documentaries, an album, and numerous TV and feature film scripts underneath his belt. His short, Black Card, has aired on HBO and Cinemax following a lengthy film-festival run. The first volume of his creator-owned comic book, X'ED, was published by Black Mask Studios (2015) and he's currently the co-writer of DC Comics' Batman and The Signal (2018) along with New York Times best-selling author Scott Snyder. Not only is he a proud alumnus of the 2016 DC Comics Writers Workshop and Sundance Institute's New Frontier WorldBuilding Residency, he's also the founder of the Tenfold Gaming Initiative. When he's not working on WorldBuilds for Sundance (Future of Work: LA), Ford (CES 2018 Keynote), or the Future of Work: Brooklyn...Sir Tony Patrick is adapting his latest graphic work--Whitepaper -- for all audiences to enjoy.
