The Elites

Nathan Oreb isn’t a hero. He’s used to working under the shadow of silence, skirting under the wrong side of the law, and getting a paycheck soaked in blood. Nathan Oreb is a hitman and he’s just taken on his biggest hit yet: His own boss, Julio Vasquez - the head of the largest drug cartel in North America. Who orders this hit? Rachel Evans, a timid teenager and daughter of an addict.

When Rachel approached the great El Silencio, the most dreaded hitman in the West, she never expected to gaze into the emerald eyes of her own classmate. However, with her kid brother kidnapped by Julio, she doesn’t have much of a choice.

Despite Nathan’s superhuman abilities, he fails to rescue the child when he’s forced to fight Julio’s own remarkable powers. Unable to overpower the ubiquitous drug-lord, Nathan retreats as Julio takes the child to his hidden compound in the Rocky Mountains.

Beaten, but not yet defeated, Nathan recruits several superpowered people - known to the world as "Elites" - to aid in his mission, including his long-term rival, the city’s resident superhero The Speedster. Tasked with turning these novice Elites into a team capable of going against the might of Julio’s cartel, Nathan must locate the compound before the drug-lord disposes of the stolen child.
