2144 #2: Commencement

College is supposed to be the best time of your life. Nobody mentioned the killer mutants, criminal masterminds, and zombie-infested amusement parks.

Welcome to the University of The City, where the future is bright, the technology is outrageous, and trouble is practically a required course.

Lance Epic is a wisecracking engineering genius determined to escape his billionaire father's shadow. His best friend Grunko is a radioactive reptilian mutant with a passion for heavy metal, comic books, and finding a girlfriend. Neither is particularly qualified to save the world.

Unfortunately, nobody told Madame X.

Under the watchful eye of their beautiful, terrifying government handler, the unlikely heroes find themselves battling MegaCrime, rescuing glamorous hostages, confronting bizarre supervillains, and navigating the even greater dangers of campus romance.

But when President Tara Talon herself becomes the target of a spectacular kidnapping, Lance and Grunko face their biggest challenge yet.

Saving the president is one thing. Surviving freshman year might be impossible.
