Quantum Leap remains one of the nineties’ most popular television shows. The series chronicled the sometimes dramatic, sometimes lighthearted adventures of physicist Sam Beckett who, as a victim of an experiment gone awry, travels through time and leaps into the lives of people in need of his help. He is aided by Al, a former astronaut who appears to Sam as a hologram. The show enjoys a cult following and even has an annual Quantum Leap Convention drawing thousands of fans.
Part One:
In this first issue of a three-issue limited series, Sam Beckett leaps into Peter Drake, a technician on the Quantum Leap project – before Sam Beckett leaps! Living Peter’s life, Sam must contend with the problems created by an unknown saboteur on the project as well as conflicts with Peter’s fiancée, also a Project technician. Meanwhile Sam comes face to face with friends and family he hasn’t seen since that fateful leap. According to Al, Sam’s only purpose is to stop a saboteur who, if successful, will keep Sam with the people he loves – and may never see again – while shredding the fabric of time! Written by fan-favourite William (Maxx, Wonder Woman) Messner-Loebs with art by Javier (Ghost Rider) Saltares.
