Super Science Vol. 1 (the Lab Portable Edition) - Paperback

by N. Alessandro K (Author), M. K. Perker (Artist)

In a world where imagination becomes reality, ordinary people gain the power to change the world--whether they should or not.

For five days, the sky turned amethyst--and the limits of human imagination disappeared.
Across the globe, scientists, engineers, and amateurs alike began achieving impossible breakthroughs. Ordinary people became capable of extraordinary inventions, reshaping the world in ways no one could predict or control.
Three years later, the LAPD's Mad Scientist Division is left to deal with the consequences. Sergeant Esmerelda Villanueva and her rookie partner Jack Mantle are tasked with containing a constant stream of incidents involving rogue technology, unstable experiments, and individuals who have pushed science far beyond its limits.
But as cases escalate and the line between innovation and danger disappears, it becomes clear that this new world isn't just chaotic--it's evolving.
An original graphic novel that blends science fiction, superhero storytelling, and police procedural with sharp humor and grounded characters, Super Science Vol. 1 explores what happens when discovery outpaces responsibility.
