What if the Dark Knight had no code of honor? What if the Man of Steel lived to protect himself alone? What if super-powers corrupted-absolutely?
An alien virus, destroyer of millions of worlds, infects a handful of souls who begin to form a new world order - a dominion. Standing between them and the destruction of the planet is a band of ordinary people armed only with their wits, their courage, and the desperation to survive.
I remember the first time I saw one. It must have been a few of days after the Peliad meteor shower. He didn't have a costume. He didn't have a cape-he just appeared in the sky as a commercial airliner was going down. The woman next to me yelled, "Look! Up in the sky!" And that's when he crushed the plane like a beer can.
We had no idea how bad things were going to get. These days, I just pray for mercy.
