Alongside the galaxy’s most unlikely gang of compatriots, Burch was about to partake in missions he couldn’t possibly have fathomed.

Sergeant Gastovsky—Gas to everyone but his superior officers—never wanted to be a soldier. Far from it. But when a con goes wrong and he needs a place to lay low for a while, he finds himself wearing the power armor of the augmented infantry. After three years on a six-year contract, Gas has found his groove running low-level cons and various illegal activities that make him good money on the side. He’s the guy who can get you what you need. But he’s always had his eye out for a big score—the one that might set him up for life after the military.

It’s been a month since Scottie Brentson stopped his parents from conquering Greensville. In the aftermath of his battle against Jake and Fiona Brentson, Scottie moves to a lakefront property, only to encounter a never-before-seen mutant.

First assuming he suffers from an allergic reaction to the refreshment, he quickly discovers himself mutating into a pyrokinetic being. He isn’t alone. Other people develop super-strength, ice, parasitic telepathy, and magic, among other abilities. Not all these powers will benefit mankind.
