Wanted is a comic book limited series created by writer Mark Millar and artist J. G. Jones. It was published by Top Cow in 2003 and 2004 as part of Millarworld.[1] It features an amoral protagonist who discovers he is the heir to a career as a supervillain assassin in a world where such villains have secretly taken control of the planet. The Sunday Times dubbed the title "the Watchmen for super-villains."[2]

A film adaptation, very loosely based on the comic, was released in 2008. A sequel, Big Game, released in 2023 and featured Wesley and the Fraternity crossing over with the other Millarworld franchises.
