## Plot

A cyborg law enforcer from the future merges with a present-day detective to stop a time-displaced future scientist performing cybernetic experiments on criminals.

## Synopsis

Dr. Lazarus, a criminal scientist from the future, escapes to the present to continue his inhumane experiments unabated.  Entering a deal with infamous crime boss Daimon Hanzo, Lazarus supplies Hanzo's syndicate with technologically-advanced weaponry and brings their slain members back to life as cyborg hybrids or Cybrids.

Jack Callanga is a former police officer who left the force following the death of his fiancée--a murder arranged by Daimon Hanzo. Now working as a private detective, he investigates the case of previously dead Hanzo underlings mysteriously turning up alive. Following the trail to Lazarus, Jack is discovered and attacked by the scientist's Cybrids. He is rescued by a Mecha Hunter, a robotic law enforcer, which has pursued Lazarus all the way from the future. However, Jack gets caught in an explosion and is mortally wounded, losing an arm in the process.

In order to save Jack’s life, the Mecha Hunter merges itself with the detective, taking on the form of his left arm.  When Jack says the code phrase ***“Jack On,”*** the arm activates, covering him in a suit of high-tech armor and transforming him into Mecha Hunter Cyberjack.  The Mecha Hunter's mission to end Dr. Lazarus’ cybernetic crime wave aligns with Jack's personal vendetta against the Hanzo Group. But sometimes, these two objectives do not always match up.

## Cast of Characters

* **Jack Callanga/Cyberjack** - A former police officer turned private investigator.  When his fiancée was murdered, the person responsible, businessman-gangster Daimon Hanzo, used his influence to avoid imprisonment.  Losing faith in the justice system, Jack decided to quit the police force.  He has a contentious relationship with the Mecha Hunter arm (nicknamed simply “Mecha”), which has a mind of its own and is able to communicate with him telepathically. As such, Jack often looks like he is talking to himself or is seen fighting with his own left arm, usually leading to awkward situations.  He transforms into Cyberjack by saying the activation code “Jack On.” In his Mecha Hunter form, he is armed with various high-tech weapons and devices, and has the ability to "Jack Up" or temporarily transform any vehicle into a futuristic model. He also has a "Cyber-Sense" that enables him to sense the presence of any cybernetic beings in his immediate vicinity.

* **Diane Amante** - CIDG detective, Jack’s former partner.

* **Takatak Boy** - A hacker and conspiracy theorist. In Philippine slang, *"takatak boy"* is a term for a cigarette street vendor, the *"takatak"* referring to the sound they make with their wooden cigarette boxes. In this case, *"takatak"* refers to the sound made when tapping a computer keyboard.

* **Dr. Lazarus** - A scientist from the future, outlawed in his own time for conducting illegal and unethical cybernetic experiments. He has developed a process called "cybridization," which combines cyborg technology with genetic manipulation to resurrect human subjects as "cybernetic hybrids" (Cybrids).

* **Daimon Hanzo** - Philippine-based Japanese gangster, using his public image as a legitimate businessman as a front for his various criminal operations.  He is associated with Dr. Lazarus, who provides his organization with super weaponry and cybernetic augmentation for their injured and dead members.

* **Hedison** - Dr. Lazarus’ chief henchman, a cyborg with a detachable head.
