"Frequency Blind Spots: The Harrison Signal" depicts a pivotal moment in the Corporate Patchwork era when resistance movements on Mars attempt to contact Earth through forgotten radio frequencies that corporate monitoring systems no longer scan. The images capture the stratified society of 2073 Chicago-Northplex, where citizens are divided by Productivity Value Ratings (PVR) determining every aspect of their lives. Technical-tier siblings Maya and Marcus Chen risk everything to intercept messages from Mars that reveal the truth about corporate manipulation of asteroid Terminus and plans for engineered population reduction. When Maya connects with Elena Harrison – a Mars-born descendant of resistance legends who has secretly returned to Earth – they unknowingly trigger corporate security protocols. The final image reveals both the Hunter-Killer surveillance drone that has discovered them and the Elite extraction team dispatched to capture the Mars operative, setting up the dramatic confrontation to come in the next issue.
