In the next chapter in the saga of the Resistance Universe, the mysterious “U” has no memory of his past before awakening with powers after the Great Death created the superpowered Reborns. His vision of the world is one that is more beautiful and full of hope than the rest of us can see. In searching for a purpose, a reason to live, he discovers Isabelle, whose father died in the plague. When the two meet, a spark is lit between them. But another spark is lit—sure to lead to explosive consequences—when U runs afoul of a crime syndicate that will stop at nothing to get revenge.
J. Michael Straczynski’s new tale of the Resistance Universe continues! Hiding out after their run-in with a pair of low level gangsters, Isabelle and the mysterious “U” begin to get to know each other. Inspired in equal parts by Isabelle’s words and his own unique vision of the world, U targets the criminal syndicate exploiting their desperate neighborhood. It’s not long before the situation turns explosive—and U ends up drawing the attention of the syndicate’s most dangerous members.
