Twilight City may be home to the Minor Threats but they're not the only down-on-their-luck super villains and heroes struggling to find their way. Comic book superstars Matt Fraction (Sex Criminals, Hawkeye) and Mike Allred (Silver Surfer, Madman) reunite to tell a twisted noir tale about fame, dames and homunculus-faced mobsters in Minor Threats: Welcome to Twilight.
Benjamin "Brock" Bronkowicz is a washed up, bird-winged actor who is NOT a superhero, but he once played one on TV. Now Brock spends his time on the superhero convention circuit - trying to cash in on his fleeting fame, drinking away his problems as he fades into obscurity. But a chance encounter with a mysterious woman empowers Brock to fight for a life he once thought was over. Can Brock learn to fly again? Or will his vices and the ruthless gangsters on his tail clip his wings for good? Find out in the exciting first issue of a miniseries that explores the Minor Threats universe through the eyes of legendary comic creators.
