I was just your average anime binge-watcher, comic reader, and full-time otaku — the most dangerous thing in my life was staying up until 2 a.m. reading Marvel fanfics.

Then I woke up strapped to a rusty metal table with mystery chemicals burning through my veins.

Now I’m “Subject 8341.” Apparently, my blood is “special.” Lucky me, right?
Except the man in charge is none other than William. Freaking. Stryker. And when Stryker smiles… you run.

Surrounded by machines, scientists, and enough needles to make a porcupine jealous, I have no idea how I got here or what’s coming next. But in a world of mutants, heroes, and monsters… I might just become something worse.
