The Hero Trade: Project Chimera

    (Bad Idea, 2025)

(From the publisher)

Hot on the heels of the launch of THE HERO TRADE: HERO FOR SALE TPB, New York Times bestselling writer Matt Kindt (BRZRKR) joins forces with world-renowned artist David Lapham (STRAY BULLETS) once more to bring you this thrilling 64-page issue, the first in a two-part action-packed epic, PROJECT CHIMERA, the biggest HERO TRADE story yet. As lead agents at Project Chimera, Hank and Ingrid are tasked with a vital mission: keep Trey and Trina, twin teenagers with world-destroying powers, in check. Under Hank and Ingrid’s watchful eye, the teens remain locked away in a tightly-secure black site, conditioned to believe they cannot survive the outside world and unleashed only when lethal force is required. Hank and Ingrid have always kept to the mission and followed orders. Until now. Trey is beginning to unravel, becoming a bloodthirsty berserker when he’s let off the leash, leaving Hank and Ingrid shaken. And Trina, once the model asset, is starting to question everything. With whispers of a mole embedded deep within the organization threatening to bring the entire operation down, Hank and Ingrid find themselves tangled between duty, deception, and a forbidden affair that could just cost them their lives.
