In Black Star City, alien off-worlders are being systematically attacked and removed from society by a clandestine paramilitary group called the Overseers. With nowhere left to turn, the refugees hire disgraced cop-turned-mercenary, Syd Kiowa, to protect them from the Overseers and their ruthless death squad, the 88s. What Syd discovers will change Earth forever.

After rescuing Avina from a vicious retrieval mission by the Overseers, Syd Kiowa finally discovers why the off-worlder is such a valuable asset. Meanwhile, Keres, the Overseers' chief architect, dispatches the most ruthless death squad on the planet, The 88s. Their mission? Find Avina to complete the experiments and eliminate Syd Kiowa for good.

A tragic event in Earth's past unlocks a clue to its tumultuous present as Syd struggles to survive a brutal attack.

The full scope of Edvin Ivanoff's sinister plan is revealed, as Syd Kiowa and a mysterious inter-dimensional ally join forces with a clandestine agency to try and prevent Earth's complete destruction.

Syd Kiowa is forced to enlist help from a few old friends in Black Star City to distract law enforcement enough to gain access to the Overseer's laboratories. Meanwhile, Rags and Avina attempt to relay the truth about the Overseers' DNA conversion campaign, as off-worlders across the city begin to riot.
