Burton was a good man — if gullible — until his superhero girlfriend cheated on him with his best friend, also a superhero, and his entire family took her side. In a fit of suicidal rage, something changed: he became a Wisher, smarter and sharper than before, yet fundamentally still himself. Now he lives as a vigilante — not an official hero but a rogue man of the night who beats up bad guys and has a talking dog and cat for company. He is a cynic, a loner, and a sadistic hermit with no love to give. That is about to change, and so is his pain.
