Mutilated, mutant by-products of America’s “Artificial Wombs” created by attempts at producing human weapons .

An American team of doctors sent to China to com- bat the runaway ultimate in biological warfare

The genetically mutated daughter of LSD users, hiding her powers in order to survive society .

And Gabe, the vital, young man mistakenly locked in an antiseptic old-age ward …

Our blessings be with you as you follow in the paths of your brothers and sisters. We have faith in mankind and we have faith in you. But, however, should you falter from the paths of righteousness, we have many willing hands eager to show you the error of your ways ….
