Shanghai is under siege. Emperor Super-Man rules the streets. And Kong Kenan—the New Super-Man—is running out of options. Kenan’s mind is reeling from revelations about his parents. Meanwhile, his teammates in the Justice League of China are dropping one by one.

But the Emperor isn’t the only Super-Man they’ve been licensed to kill. Unless Kenan acts fast, he’ll become a casualty of war.
