Signed by Amanda Conner and Jimmy Palmiotti.This is the Kickstarter Only exclusive Hype square bound graphic novel featuring the Amanda Conner cover. This is a limited edition of the book. This version was only printed for Kickstarter pledges and limited to the number of pledges received (approximately 500 copies).From the kickstarter:HYPE is a 52 page action packed thriller with heart that offers a twist of the traditional superhero genre. It is a graphic novel written by Justin Gray & Jimmy Palmiotti featuring the art of JAVIER PINA and and ALESSIA NOCERA and design and lettering by BILL TORTOLINI.The Basics: Fans of our past work and kickstarters like DENVER , SEX & VIOLENCE AND THE RESISTANCE are in for a treat as we offer an intensely dramatic character driven sci-fi story that explores what it would really take to create a living being that can only experience life an hour a day.Noah Haller is HYPE, a last resort secret weapon for the United States Military, a man who can only be awake for a single hour on any given day. The genetic and medical enhancements that give him his superhuman abilities force him to undergo complete cellular regeneration like being rebuilt or reborn every 23 hours. Hype is a wonderfully flawed character. His massive intellect lacks experience, context and nuance. He is initially like a computer full of information and capable of solving complex problems, but lacking in emotion and abstract thought to solve small ones.Hype responds to sensory aspects of his environment with indifference. He has attention to detail but misses the "big picture" and social cues.Being awake only one hour a day leaves very little time to cultivate an emotional relationship with anyone including his handlers. That changes when he meets Amanda Marr, a brilliant scientist and psychologist hired to help Hype find a balance between being super and being human.Unfortunately for Hype and Amanda, his training is cut short when a shadowy terrorist group is poised to unleash a deadly pathogen that threatens to destabilize the world governments.
