meaning of "shatter"
Does "shatter" here mean "someone who shatters other things and persons"? But with this meaning it should be "shatterer" instead of "shatter". Maybe it means something else?

In the day before tomorrow, all jobs are temporary, and control is in the hands of a few ruthless men. The world's biggest, most influential media syndicate has accidentally discovered a limitless source of cheap creative talent: stealing people's brains out of their heads. Only one man can stop them: a temporary cop with a golden brain. A man on a mission whose mind is capable of absorbing the talents of others... permanently. A man named Sadr al-din Morales. His friends call him... SHATTER

Answer

Hello Pineapple,
In this context 'SHATTER' appears to be a proper name like 'Bob' or 'Pineapple'. In the link it is the name of a magazine too.

Hope this helps

Bob
