This is the "Blackout" story serialized in "Dark Horse Presents" issues 24 thru 26.

The protagonist is a science hero, to borrow Alan Moore's term, who has apparently acquired his titular power/tech very recently and is in the process of figuring out how to use it. During a heist of some sort. Why not in a more controlled environment, you wonder? I don't have an answer, but it may just be a case of the sentiment expressed in the lede quote.

The issue number in the title may be a bit premature in this case, as I don't actually know that there'll ever be an issue 1, but considering that the story isn't just open-ended but also open-middled and open-beginninged, there really ought to. :)
