In a world teetering on the brink of destruction, the powerful alien creature known as The Destroyer has declared his intention to annihilate Earth. With superheroes either out of reach or unwilling to risk their lives, humanity turns to an unlikely savior: Londyn Richmond, the enigmatic and calculating director of the Civic Intelligence Unit (CIU). But Richmond’s plan isn’t to recruit heroes—it’s to assemble the world’s most dangerous and unpredictable villains. Led by the morally ambiguous extraterrestrial fairy Ryen Szell, the team includes the icy and isolated Ellie Marshall, aka Frost, the cursed botanist Joel Green, aka Professor Crabgrass, the pragmatic hitman Otto Black, the conflicted teenage werewolf Nicholas Woods, the chaotic demon Vorgoth Shawcross, and the fiery Roman warrior Tiberius Cervianus. Together, they are the Corrupt Hellbent Acquaintances of the Sinister—or C.H.A.O.S. Thrown together by circumstance and united only by their mutual disdain for authority, the group must overcome their mistrust and inner demons to face The Destroyer. As they enter battle, their agendas, past traumas, and simmering rivalries threaten to tear them apart. In this high-stakes, action-packed spectacle, C.H.A.O.S. will discover that sometimes, the world’s worst nightmares are its only hope. But can they rise above their villainous natures to save the Earth—or will they embrace the destruction they were born to cause?
