Biography
Wildstorm
Jeremy Stone
Jacob Marlowe was homeless, an amnesiac and down on his luck until he met Void, who turned his life around. She told him he was once Lord Emp, a Kherubim responsible for defending Earth against the Daemonites. Marlowe ended up becoming a billionaire CEO operating out of the Halo Building in NYC. They assembled the WildC.A.T.S., a group of gifted Kherubim and half-Kherubim to combat the Daemonite invasion of Earth. The freebooter Gnome sold Marlowe information about 'gifted ones', and their roster included Spartan, Warblade and Maul. Void started having visions of the past and future possible timelines about an Orb of Power and realized they had to get it before the Daemonites or the world was doomed. Marlowe‘s secretary Janet told him Gnome had a new gifted one for him, and Marlowe met Gnome’s contact in a nightclub. The contact was an attractive woman and Marlowe came on to her. She rejected him, sending Marlowe into a depressive spiral, and he spent the night drunk in an alley. Ballistic and the C.O.P.s spotted him while they were chasing Velocity, but assumed he was too drunk to be credible witness or threat to them. While the WildC.A.T.S. waited for Marlowe to return to the Halo Building Spartan ran Warblade and Maul through combat training against battle-droids. Warblade had a temper, was filled with bloodlust, and couldn’t wait to test his skills in actual battle against Daemonites. Helspont and the Cabal were seeking out both gifted ones and the Orb of Power. Cabal member Alberto Cassini sold out his group, revealing the location of gifted one Priscilla Kitaen to Gnome in exchange for money. Grifter and Zealot were seeking the gifted one who had 'the sight', the ability to see and exorcise Daemonites, and were on Gnome’s trail. Gnome ordered his hired muscle the Triad to attack them, and Zealot insisted Grifter find Kitaen while she dealt with them. Priscilla was an exotic dancer working under the stage name of Voodoo, and Grifter found her at the Hot Spot. Gnome sold the information he had on Voodoo to Marlowe, asking not for money but for a favor with no questions asked. The Cabal dispatched two Daemonites and a Coda warrior to the Hot Spot, where they fought the WildC.A.T.S., Grifter and Zealot over Voodoo. The battle ended when the fatally wounded Coda warrior set off an explosive on her body, blowing up the Hot Spot. Helspont checked in with B’lial, a Daemonite mole posing as vice president Dan Quayle. (WildC.A.T.s v1 #1)
