The SKAR virus has infected a handful of adolescents worldwide, giving them superhuman, telekinetic powers along with a death sentence. When the government and the private sector both set out to find a cure for the deadly illness, their humanitarian effort belies an arms race that could set up a whole new balance of power. Enter the young Sam Chance, who finds himself SKAR-positive. The imminent end of his life just might be the beginning of an entirely different world... From comic vet David Hine (X-Men, District X, Spawn: The Armageddon Collection) and global manga artist Hans Steinbach (A Midnight Opera) comes an unflinching look into a future that's closer than we all would like to admit.
