+ Want to read

"Eric Kripke (creator of the hit TV series Supernatural) teams up with Vertigo veterans John Higgins (HELLBLAZER) and Glenn Fabry (PREACHER) to bring you a very Vertigo take on the modern superhero in this new graphic novel thriller. Josh Jaffe, a neurotic family man mid-midlife crisis, purchase a "smart pill" to increase his focus and jolt him out of his slump. But to Josh's surprise, the pill gives him incredible strength and power—at the cost of being extremely addictive. This irreverent and brutally realistic story examines both the mighty highs and humiliating lows of being a real-life superhero. Collects JACKED #1-6"—
