The government has dispatched Amanda McKee - the technopath codenamed Livewire - to investigate the ruins of a secret facility formerly run by Toyo Harada¸ the most powerful telepath on Earth and her former mentor. In his quest for world betterment at any cost¸ Harada sought out and activated many potential psiots like himself. Those who survived¸ but whose powers he deemed to have no value to his cause¸ were hidden away at this installation. But Livewire¸ having studied Harada's greatest strengths and learned his deepest weaknesses¸ senses opportunity where he once saw failure. A young girl who can talk to birds… A boy who can make inanimate objects gently glow… To others¸ these are expensive disappointments. But¸ to Livewire¸ they are secret weapons…in need of a leader. Now¸ as a mechanized killer called Rex-O seeks to draw them out¸ Livewire and her new team of cadets will be forced to put their powers into action…in ways they never could have imagined… Collects SECRET WEAPONS #1-4 Intended for readers 12+
