54 parts Complete Wrangling teenage emotions is hard enough on good days, but what if on bad days they could manifest as giant flesh and blood monsters?
Pacific Rim meets Friday Night Lights as knee-jerk rebel Sage Sawyer is forced to join her high school "tourneytub" team, the Jupiter Jackalopes. Tourneytub is the muddy opera where "humors," these emotion-fueled monsters, are pacified by jockeys in "tubs," towering robots. (Basically graceful cathedrals wrapped up in sucker punches.)
Sage's new teammates are all oddballs. Genesis O'Toole, "Princess Chastity Belt" herself, is a devout Christian. When Sage joins the team though, Genesis wrestles with intense feelings for her.
Talia Amphigore, star Jackalope, gets badly injured and benched. She's determined to reclaim her throne, but what if she can't? Who is she without tourneytub?
Artie Amphigore, the disabled "Tub Whisperer," may be a brilliant engineer, but he struggles with crippling (haha) self-doubt. When the Jackalopes need him most, will he rise above his doubt?
Meanwhile, following Talia's downfall, Peter Donkersmit suddenly finds himself responsible for the manifestation of the team's monsters, birthed from his own emotions. Easier said than done, particularly once Peter begins questioning his identity.
