Devil's Reign: Villains for Hire

In this three-issue Marvel miniseries from 2022, writer Clay McLeod Chapman and artist Manuel Garcia explore a dark corner of the "Devil's Reign" event by following a squad of super-powered criminals—including Aleksei Sytsevich, Electro, and Agony—as they are conscripted into a shady government program. Operating under the thumb of Anton Vanko and the enigmatic Gemma Shin, these villains find themselves forced into a mercenary role they never asked for. It's a taut, action-driven look at what happens when the worst of the worst are turned into weapons for a cause they don't believe in.
