New York Police Department

When tough New York cop Alex Sanchez uncovers a dark conspiracy, a fiery explosion leaves him near death. But a high-tech industrialist has other plans for the shattered police officer. Utilizing a miraculous exoskeleton and cybernetic implants, Sanchez is rebuilt from the ground up, endowed with extraordinary strength, blinding speed, uncanny agility, and a fearsome countenance engulfed in green fire. Now Alex Sanchez is Firebrand -- a gritty, hard-edged avenger driven by old ghosts to make a difference in a city plummeting into chaos.
