Synopsis

At the dawn of the third millennium, a series of scientific discoveries and radical advances in technology have shaken the world. But enemies of old are still on the loose. Taking advantage of the carefree feeling of hope and optimism, the crime syndicate members along with Blackjack have discretely taken control of all key positions in this fast evolving society, and are quickly shaping them to their favor. One man, though, sees through their conniving tricks, because he himself is a trickster, a manipulator, the king of them all: ACE COOPER - THE MAGICIAN.
