STRANGE FRIENDS
The Space
Hoppers Club.
Five students who agree on nothing.
One teacher-bot with an agenda.
A weekend pass to a ruin nobody has finished mapping.
Somebody still has to write the report.
BY INVITATION
Nobody
applies.
Professor Sileea Siiptar founded the club to get promising
students out of the lecture hall and onto a dig.
She is selective about who she takes, and rumor says
they're doing top secret research.
A hop every
weekend.
A new adventure to a different planet every weekend,
but that doesn't mean it doesn't come with homework
and a lot of research prep.
THE CURRENT ROSTER
Four misfits,
and the new girl.
Zero is a prankster who hears everything and aims most
of it at Zella. Perun is an exchange student with a
secret. Opal's skin changes color with whatever they
feel. Davs has checked out, counting down to graduation
from inside a containment suit. Zella joined last, to
save her grades, and films all of it.
VOLUME ONE
It starts with
a failing grade.
Zella Ki'o is thirteen, four-armed, winged, and sure
nobody at Singko Academy can see her. Her grades are
slipping. The club is the one way left to fix them,
and she signs on as its videographer.
