The Invincible Jayson Garvey is the origin story to beat all origin stories. Alex, a scientist, is outrunning drones and a deadly curfew in the not so distant future. She is searching desperately for her lost fifteen year old son. It's not just that he's out after curfew. She fears something more ominous.
She makes a phone call to a crisis line in America, where Alex's secrets first began to spiral out of control. A woman manning the line answers, and Alex, oddly, knows her name. The woman, Althea, is baffled, especially when the "anonymous caller" starts talking about the garden of Eden being the lab of a mad scientist named Eve. Alex finds Jayson, but something is wrong. Or maybe too right. Jayson can do things with his mind that other people only dream about. Alex tells the truth to her troubled teen. She flashes back to when she met Althea 15 years earlier. It was the morgue in which Althea tragically has found her slain son, shot to death by an unknown assailant. Oddly, he looks exactly like Alex's son, Jayson. The younger Alex is at the morgue illegally gathering skin samples for her research on CRSPR tech- genetic engineering. In the face of Althea's grief, Alex remembers the loss of the only male figure in her life, her genius uncle- killed in a case of mistaken identity by police. Her knowledge of cloning, her ability to enact genetic engineering, Althea's overwhelming grief and Alex's own unresolved trauma leave her no choice... |
