Cover A: Matt Lesniewski

Faceless hasn't seen his family in a decade. For a time, he belonged to a different type of family. Now, he works with his friends Hal, Carp, and Jerry as scavengers. But when they pry a strange type of machinery from a cliff, it bonds with Faceless and refuses to let go. 

In Thumbland, Kitari helps Faceless adapt to the mech suit he doesn't want. Kitari needs to remove his own mechanical suit for an operation to help his father survive a fatal illness. Then, Kitari learns that, following the surgery, he'll need a replacement suit, and none are currently available. Can Kitari go through with the risky surgery to please his family? And will a cloaked thief who has already stolen components from Kitari also steal Faceless' new suit?
