What happens in the Transplants preview?
The exclusive Transplants preview introduces readers to a woman named Jess who had a troubled life. Having been diagnosed with heart problems as a young girl, Jess’ father was killed, she ran away from home, constantly found herself in situations full of bad men, and then had her son taken away from her. Jess then gets a heart transplant surgery; however, the procedure miraculously gives her superpowers.
“When Jess finally receives the long-awaited organ transplant that she desperately needs to live, she believes all her troubles are behind her,” Dark Horse’s description of the graphic novel reads. “That is until she starts developing some interesting side effects from the transplant—a newfound set of fantastical abilities and superpowers. When she discovers that everyone else who received organs from this donor is also experiencing the same thing, they must all figure out who this donor was, and decide what to do with the powers—use them for good, evil, or simply ignore them altogether.”
Prior to writing Transplants, Collard helped pen a number of Family Guy episodes. He also wrote 2003’s Out of Time starring Denzel Washington, 2006’s Annapolis starring James Franco and Tyrese Gibson, and 2022’s Chickenhare and the Hamster of Darkness.
Transplants will be available to purchase in bookstores on September 24, 2024, and in comic shops on September 25, 2024. It is now available to pre-order at Amazon, Barnes & Noble, and at your local comic shops and bookstores.
