Tech Jacket Volume 2: Lift Off

by Robert Kirkman, Joseph Keatinge, Aubrey Sitterson, E.J. Su (Artist), Khary Rhandolph (Artist)

Overview

The Geldarians are a race of incredibly intelligent, yet physically weak and fragile beings. To compensate for their frailty they have invented the Tech Jacket, a vest that every Geldarian is equipped with upon birth. A fully developed Tech Jacket is considered to be one of the most powerful weapons in the universe.

Zack Thompson, through an event of sheer chance, has come to possess a Tech Jacket of his own. Now it appears that the fate of the entire universe rests on his shoulders as he learns that with infinite power comes infinite responsibility.
