The storyline follows the former WildC.A.T.s team members as they transition from superheroics to running a cutting-edge media and technology corporation, exploring themes of corporate branding and identity in a post-superhero world. It's a key chapter in the Wildcats franchise that redefines the team's purpose and dynamics under the WildStorm imprint at DC Comics.
In "Brand Building," Jack Marlowe—aka Spartan—begins laying the groundwork for the powerful Halo Corporation, setting the stage for a new era of influence and ambition. With Grifter on the move for scouting missions and Mister Wax caught in unexpected trouble, the stakes rise as C.C. Rendozzo secures a crucial piece of the puzzle. Written by Joe Casey and brought to life with sharp, dynamic art by Dustin Nguyen—whose cover pencils with Rian Hughes define the issue’s sleek, high-octane aesthetic—this Wildcats Version 3.0 #1 delivers a grounded yet electrifying start to a bold new chapter.
In "Brand Building," Jack Marlowe—known as Spartan—launches the foundation of the Halo Corporation, setting the stage for a new era of power and influence. Grifter shadows his efforts with sharp-eyed precision, while Mister Wax finds himself tangled in complications that threaten to unravel his role. Amid the scheming, C.C. Rendozzo secures a crucial advantage, and with Agent Downs watching closely and Babytron lurking in the background, alliances shift and ambitions take shape.
When Jack Marlowe takes a bold step to aid Halo, Dolby and Garfield find their footing unraveling fast. Meanwhile, C.C. Rendozzo, Grifter, and Mister Wax converge on a shared objective—each driven by their own motives, none of which are quite what they seem.
Grifter and Mister Wax find themselves drawn into a tense game of trust with the enigmatic C.C. Rendozzo, while Dolby and Garfield navigate the shifting dynamics of their new arrangement with Halo. Amid the quiet streets of suburbia, the search for the missing agent takes a turn no one saw coming.
In "Pearl Necklace," Jack Marlowe and Garfield weigh the future of Halo as Grifter, Mister Wax, and C.C. Rendozzo make a risky move to seize Agent Orange—only to find their plan spirals into chaos. With tensions high and loyalties tested, the team must navigate the fallout of a mission gone wrong.
