Regular art cover. "The Age of Innocence" - For seventy years, Galloway & Galloway has dominated the pharmaceutical field. From band aids to cough syrup, G&G made life easier for all of us. Then they decided to make life itself. In the early '80s, G&G created the next step in evolution -- a race of genetically engineered superhumans, each bred with specifically endowed enhanced abilities. But the company -- and the G&G employees who volunteered to be the test subject's parents -- never took into account one very important thing -- puberty! XL! BLUR! CALAMITY! REBOUND! They live the life most kids would love to have...and they'd be more than happy to trade with you! This series will offer single-issue, self-contained stories about four kids growing up in a super-science complex with powers that enable them to move mountains, but prevent them from making friends. In the first issue, the Troublemakers try to help their favorite maintenance worker at G&G,"Uncle" Jack Willoughby, out of his mysteriously deepening state of depression -- but what if solving Jack's problems create a whole bunch more? Written by Fabian Nicieza, with art by Kenny Martinez and Anibal Rodriguez. FC, 32 pgs. #1A cover pencilled by Kenny Martinez. Cover price $2.50.
