Action Lab announces new superhero series The Consultant, check out a preview here

October 30, 2017 by Amie Cranswick

Action Lab has announced the upcoming release of its new series The Consultant, which promises to flip the standard superhero narrative on its head; check out a preview of the first issue here ahead of its launch this December…

There’s no denying the good that Superman, Wonder Woman, Spider-Man, and Captain America do. If I lived in Gotham, Metropolis, or 616 New York I would be more than grateful for the countless times they’ve saved the world. But gratitude doesn’t equal trust. We’ve all come to realize that people in power, people that we “look up to”, do some pretty twisted things. Politicians. Celebrities. Movie Producers.

People with power have the darkest secrets you can possibly imagine. The trick is hiding them; and that’s how Marcus Greenberg makes his money. There’s no story he can’t kill, no sin he can’t bury, no witness he can’t disappear. He is the go-to-guy for making super sins fade away. So, if you have a problem that can’t be bought, if no one will help you bury the body, if you can afford him, then maybe you can hire The Consultant.

The Consultant #1 is out on December 6th, priced $3.99.
