HistoryText
  • Greysuits: 1) Name used by criminals to describe secret agents working for the British security intelligence services. 2) The powers at work in this country about which we have no knowledge. 3) Surfing term for sharks. John Blake is the protagonist of Greysuit, a 2000 AD strip by Pat Mills and John Higgins which is set in the present day. He is a Delta-Class assassin working for the British government who has been brainwashed into having incredible superhuman powers and doing exactly what he is told. The words of his conditioning pulse in his head like a throbbing artery: "Love is a lie. Trust no one. Kill to order." When Blake's brainwashing begins to tarnish he decides to train his sights on his boss instead, but is captured and reprogrammed by the shadowy powers whose pawn he is.
