Eighteen
years ago, the strange crystal landed in San Francisco, and with it
arrived Earth’s first super-humans. Every baby born on that day has a
power. All but one — Tommy Watts, nicknamed "Zero." Until one day, he does.
British television star Jonathan Ross (TURF, REVENGE) and American
comics master Bryan Hitch (REAL HEROES) team up to tell Tommy’s story in
the new Image Comics graphic novel AMERICA’S GOT POWERS, due out in
September.
Now,
super-powered teens battle each other on reality television for the
entertainment of millions, but when Tommy manifests a power different
from any seen before, he discovers the behind-the-scenes machinations
are deadlier than the combat in the stadium. The United States
government and the powered kids’ mentor both have their own plans for
Tommy, but neither of them counted on him and his peers having plans of
their own.
With
sharp, satirical writing from Ross and stunning artwork by Hitch, one
of the best superhero comic artists in the business, AMERICA’S GOT
POWERS infuses the superhero genre with a dash of Divergent-esque dystopia. It will be in comic book stores on September 3 and in bookstores on September 16.
