Gen13 Short Synopsis(from
SYNOPSIS
Burnout, Fairchild, Freefall, Grunge, and Rainmaker! They were young, hip and carefree
teenagers without a care in the world. That was, until the day a secret government agency
inducted them all into its Gen13 project!
The young heroes quickly realized that the Keepers at Project Genesis had a sinister
agenda for them, so they decided to escape, unaware of the fact that they had already been
transformed by the Gen-Active process. The game turned deadly when the youths were
labelled fugitives who posed a threat to the national security of the United States.
Their only hope for survival was to work as a team, utilizing their newly found powers
to battle their foes, and to learn the secrets of their pasts that linked them to International
Operations and the mysterious Team 7.
Gen13, created by Jim Lee, Brandon Choi, and J. Scott Campbell, became an instant
sensation when it was released in February 1994. After a five-issue miniseries took the
comics world by storm, a Gen13 1/2 fromWizard, a #0 issue, and a Gen13 Rave, an
ongoing series kicked off in March 1995. The creative team has remained consistent
on both series, with Brandon Choi scripting, J. Scott Campbell pencilling, and Alex
Garner inking.
