War Wolf Vol. 1
War Wolf Vol. 1 introduces us to Thomas Bruin, a man abruptly thrust into the limelight by fate. Plucked from obscurity, Bruin saves his town from an alien scout team and strikes an unholy bargain to prevent the full-scale invasion that follows. This blend of bold actions and hidden truths catapults him to international fame, which he adeptly uses to his favour. However, there's a looming dilemma โ time is running out. Only Bruin is aware that he never truly defeated the aliens all those years ago, and as he nears the end of his career, the past catches up with him.
Following his heroic stand against an alien invasion, Thomas Bruin transforms from an unnoticed security guard into Earth's greatest hero. His ascendancy has no limits; starting with his rise to celebrity status, then to congress, and ultimately becoming the head of the planet's inaugural orbital security force. Wed into one of the nationโs most influential political families, he rides the wave of endorsements and becomes the embodiment of human resilience. Yet, an underlying anxiety troubles Bruin. He alone knows that his celebrated victory is a facade. Faced with the aliens' return, their strength even greater, Bruin must become the hero he has led the world to believe he is... or perish in the attempt.
