COMIC WATCH: COMPANY MAN IS A COMIC ON THE RISE!

Pete Hernandez III's Company Man

Company man is a comic book about a corporation that creates a serum that gives kids of different varying ethnic backgrounds, super powers, that is of course if they live through the process. This corporation snatches these kids up off the streets and tries to make them into living breathing super weapons that they then in turn license out to world powers. These world powers use these kids to do very bad things.

The inventor of the serum is a fictionalized descendant of a real world racist of Dr. Cornelius Rhoads who had injected Puerto Ricans with cancer back in the 1930’s, and like his great grandfather this evil villain is up to no good. This villain uses the serum and disguises it as a common flu injection, but what it does is grant the user superhuman abilities ten years after the initial injection.

The hero of the story is Nicholas Reyes, the latest unwilling subject of this serum. As the reader you follow him as he discovers his new powers and who he

is as a person while being pitted up against dangerous people and locales across the globe.

Meanwhile the evil corporation has a plan, and where does Nicholas fit into all this?

The comic is created by Pete Hernandez III. You can purchase his many books here on amazon: COMPANY MAN
