A Nobel-Prize winning scientist, a genius composer, an Olympic-level athlete and an expert in the occult, Edison Crane is as addicted to the mysteries of the world as he is to sitting at the top of the Fortune 500. These are the tales of the world's most exceptional man and this story marks his first published adventure.”

Written by Millar with art by Rafael Alburquerque the comic will be availible in stores on Dec. 5, 2018.
Like its previous venture, Magic Order, Prodigy is intended to start as a comic and then be adapted into other forms by Netflix.
