Description*:Picking up five years after her mysterious resurrection, the series chronicles the exploits of Penelope Lichtenwald, a 23-year-old girl haunted by her past and seemingly on a path of self-destruction, uncertain about her place in the world. Set in a “secondary world” of high science and magic, scarred by the actions of superpowered humans, a race of elves on the brink of extinction and many assorted and persecuted non-humans, pejoratively referred to as “bends.”

The story primarily takes place in the fictional metropolis of Jet City, a melting pot, dystopian place trying to crawl from the wreckage of mid-century failures, teetering on insolvency at the tail end of a long and arduous cold war characterized by a heightened suspicion of non-humans in the United States, aggressive security tactics and the ever-prevalent threat of annihilation, nuclear or otherwise.

As she navigates this world, Penelope finds herself constantly challenged by the morally-ambiguous issues of sexuality, relationships, family, social hierarchy, religion and violence, all while wondering why and how she came back to life.
