The Hacker Files
(DC, 1992-1993)
DC
Computers brought with them the prospect for revolution—revolution in information, that most important of all sources of power. Business, the military, and governments sought to use computers for their own ends. But for “hackers” like Jack Marshall, the only true safety lay in distributing their power as widely as possible.
Marshall is an anarchist—or at least someone who doesn’t trust those in power to use it for the best. His own way of rebelling is to break into computer systems. This has made him some powerful enemies, but it has also put him in contact with a sort of “digital underground” of freethinkers around the globe. These contacts have led Jack on adventures involving everything from “push-button war” among the generals to saving refugees from the repressive government of Red China and the Tienanmen Square massacre of 1989.
