 POWERLESS
#1 (OF 6)
Written by Matt Cherniss & Peter Johnson
Penciled by Michael Gaydos
Cover by Alex Maleev
What makes
a hero? Is it his actions, or is it the results of those actions?
POWERLESS explores what it means to be a hero in very human terms.
By re-imagining Marvel’s most popular characters without superhuman
powers, this series will strip down to the core heroes we have all
come to know and love. These characters – including Peter Parker,
Matt Murdock and Logan — were fated to be heroes. Just because Peter
Parker wasn’t bitten by a radioactive spider doesn't mean he didn't
do battle with a madman named Norman Osborn. Matt Murdock? Blinded,
yes — but with no heightened senses. However, he did become a legal
champion of the poor in Hell's Kitchen, and he did cross paths with
Wilson Fisk, the Kingpin. And Logan is, of course, the enigmatic
— and amnesiac — drifter on the run from his past.
