For the last time (unless Capstone decides to have more written and drawn) Nikolas Flux has the spectacular, yet uncontrollable ability to time travel to points in the past of historical significance. He's gone back to the Boston tea party, the Salem witch trials, the California gold rush, the battle of the Alamo, the eruption of Mount Vesuvius in Pompeii, the assassination of Abraham Lincoln (President), the attack on Pearl Harbor, the time of the Shackleton Expedition in Antarctica, the Underground Railroad, and finally to the sinking of the Titanic as shown in every one of these graphic novels as some sort of opening sequence. As for a synopsis on this one, everyone knows the story of the Titanic so there's really no point. Suffice it to say Nikolas finds himself on the Titanic before it strikes the iceberg and sunk.
I am not sure if Goodreads has these in the correct order, but at least someone has a list. There is very little that I could find about this online. I'm assuming Capstone is either a new, up and coming publishing company, or the series was thrown a bone. I don't know. This may or may not be the very first one. There's no way these are in the right order when a sequel is listed as having been released the year before. There really should be more information on this series.
This is one of ten graphic novels. I think it's both understandable and unfortunate that there isn't one in where Nick zaps back to 9/11. Possibly still too soon as over the past 20 years, there've been people whose objections to utilizing 9/11 in fiction causing whatever it is to become a controversy that cropped up.
This one, for what it is, gets 3 stars from me. Personally, I think the one about Pompeii was the best of them all.
