Darian Fawkes is a petty thief and conman who is bailed out of jail by his brother in return for undergoing an experiment that implants a quicksilver gland in his head that allows him to turn invisible. When his brother is killed, he ends up working for a top-secret government organization in return for a counter-agent which keeps the gland from driving him insane.
