H A U G E[/color][/sub][/sub][/b][/CENTER] [INDENT][INDENT]Jenny Sparks is sick of letting the world pass her by. So many years on this Earth, and what has she actually done? What has she [i]achieved[/i]? Nothing. All she has to her name is a past she’s not proud of, the uncertainty of what she is, and the question of what she’s been brought here to do. She spends her days drinking and smoking her annoyingly long life away, doing nothing, achieving nothing. [i]Being[/i] nothing. She reckons it’s about time she changed that. Stryfe was an eye-opener. Watching America’s superheroes rally to defend the innocent made her realise something... they were doing it [i]wrong[/i]. They’re disorganised, messy, reactionary. A far cry from the heroes they no doubt wanted to be. The world’s in a precarious place now, and shit could hit the fan at any second. It needs saving. But when the help you’ve got is just going to make things worse, what’s left for you to do? Well, that’s easy. You’ve got to do it yourself. Jenny’s new mission is going to thrust her back into a world she’s tried very hard to leave behind. Covert ops, secret intelligence organisations, superheroics, capes and powers and metaphysical superscientific bullshit. To make the world feel right again, she’s looking for a group of like-minded people – and her search is going to lead her right into the middle of the metahuman arms race. Jenny is a very grumpy, old, powerful woman, and she’s done sitting on the sidelines. Don’t piss her off.

How is she over a hundred years old, but doesn’t look a day over twenty? How is it that she was born with powers, but doesn’t have a single metahuman gene in her body? How is she not dead yet? And just what the hell is she supposed to do with all these so-called gifts, which have thus far condemned her to a life full of bad decisions and countless disappointments? She still can’t answer most of those questions, but she thinks the last one might finally be in her ballpark. Maybe she’s supposed to save the world. But to do that, she needs a team. Through Jenny, I’ll be injecting some new, interesting concepts and characters from Warren Ellis’ Wildstorm catalogue into the Absolute Comics universe. I love these characters, and I’m excited for the chance to tell a story that can have far-reaching consequences not only for them, but for the Absolute universe as a whole.
