SEVEN is the brainchild of Denise Wohl who worked for Marvel and DC comics during the 70s and has returned with a contemporary comic book that features a new generation of superheroes. She commissioned James Shooter, one of the true masterminds of comic history, to develop and write the adventures of SEVEN. Since working together and crafting this great new generation of contemporary superheroes they have become partners. Shooter, who has been in the comic industry since he was 13 years old, and who became editor in chief of Marvel in the late 70s, remarks, "This is the best work I have ever done".
SEVEN is based on seven captivating characters, each born with intrinsic abilities that call a sense of purpose. They are all drawn to New York City for various reasons and meet each other one by one. In the first issue, you meet four, in the second issue the other three. Their powers are the mastery of physics, quantum science, nano technology, alchemy, and cosmic influences. The profound difference that makes this magnificent tale unique from all other adventure series is the concept that we all possess the potential to become our own superhero.
SEVEN will be distributed in most comic book stores and various newsstands. Wohl will donate a portion of her proceeds to the "Spirituality for Kids Foundation"-the organization that was the impetus for the conception of SEVEN. This project promises to bring forth this knowledge that we are all connected and that our actions as a whole can resonate towards creating universal change and harmony. The "Secret" is out and the SEVEN are here.
