When his cover is blown, his wife taken and daughter murdered before his eyes, Frank wakes up barely a man, a torso with an unrecognizable face, hanging in a warehouse and used as an example for those who betray The Synidicate Six. However, Frank is rescued by Special Forces and taken to a secret installation where in its depths a massive facility of alien technology awaits. There Frank is given the bionic treatment. After rejecting his new duties, Frank seizes an opportunity to escape and go rogue to find his missing wife and seek revenge for the murder of his daughter using a new body that gives him the means to track down and destroy the killers.<\/p>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"20814\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.comicbox.com\/index.php\/news-english\/arcana-announces-killing-machine\/attachment\/killing-2\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.comicbox.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/01\/Killing1.jpg?fit=528%2C800&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"528,800\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"Arcana Announces Killing Machine\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.comicbox.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/01\/Killing1.jpg?fit=528%2C800&amp;ssl=1\" class=\"alignright size-full wp-image-20814\" style=\"border: 1px solid black; margin-left: 4px; margin-right: 4px;\" title=\"Arcana Announces Killing Machine\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.comicbox.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/01\/Killing1.jpg?resize=528%2C800\" alt=\"\" width=\"528\" height=\"800\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.comicbox.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/01\/Killing1.jpg?w=528&amp;ssl=1 528w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.comicbox.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/01\/Killing1.jpg?resize=99%2C150&amp;ssl=1 99w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 528px) 100vw, 528px\" \/>Creator Scott Milam is the screenwriter of the upcoming MOTHER&rsquo;S DAY, directed by SAW 2-4 and REPO THE GENETIC OPERA&rsquo;S Darren Lynn Bousman and starring Jamie King and Rebecca De Mornay. In addition, Milam is currently adapting Dark Horse&rsquo;s THE SECRET for Universal and THE WOLFMAN producer, Scott Stuber. Milam originally brought the idea to producer Daniel Alter, who produced 20th Century Fox&rsquo;s HITMAN and is currently developing the sequel, as well as a JOHNNY QUEST movie at Warner Bros, KANE AND LYNCH at Lions Gate with Bruce Willis attached, and the film adaptation of Devil Due&rsquo;s popular comic book series HACK\/SLASH at Rogue. Milam was originally going to spec the project as a screenplay until Alter had the idea to bring the project to Arcana to \u00ab\u00a0reverse-engineer\u00a0\u00bb it into a comic book property before shopping it as a feature film and video-game project.<\/p>\n<p>Arcana Owner and CEO, Sean O&rsquo;Reilly said, \u00ab\u00a0Working with Scott has been incredible and it&rsquo;s simply fascinating to see what his mind comes up with&#8230;\u00a0\u00bb Killing Machine is Milam&rsquo;s first foray into comics. The book is planned as a series of graphic novels illustrated by newcomer Kenneth Loh.<\/p>\n<p>About Arcana Studios:<br \/>\nArcana Comics has published over 150 original comics and books and is a division of Arcana, an award winning transmedia company founded by CEO Sean O&rsquo;Reilly.\u00a0 Arcana establishes new brands and intellectual properties with engaging storytelling and compelling visuals through comic books, graphic novels, animation, short-form live-action, video games, toys and now, feature length films.
