Alters #1
This trade paperback collects the first story arc of the 2017 AfterShock series Alters, introducing Chalice, a transgender superheroine navigating both her personal life and the responsibilities of being a hero in a world where superpowered individuals are known as 'alters.' The volume follows her journey of self-discovery and the challenges she faces from both villains and a society that struggles to accept her identity.
In Alters #1, writer Paul Jenkins and artist Leila Leiz launch a striking new series with a high-stakes clash between Chalice and Matter Man in the desolate desert near Las Vegas. As Octavian and his group of alters attempt to intervene, the escalating conflict takes a devastating turn when Morph is seriously injured—setting the stage for a story that explores identity, control, and the cost of power. The cover by Brian Stelfreeze captures the tension with stark, dynamic lines, while Tamra Bonvillain’s colors and Ryane Hill’s lettering deepen the atmosphere of unease.
In "null," Chalice and Matter Man clash in the harsh desert near Las Vegas, their conflict drawing the desperate intervention of Octavian and his alters—only to end in serious injury for Morph. The story unfolds with tense, high-stakes energy, exploring the fragile dynamics between these fractured identities.
