A thunderclap of displaced air splits the sky, rattling the ground underfoot. A blur of blue and black streaks downward—May Grayson, the superhero Invincible, her flight frantic and desperate as she evades a relentless pursuer. They crash into the street nearby, asphalt fracturing under the force. Anish rises from the dust, his gaze fixed on May's crumpled form. "Where have you been hiding, May? Thragg expects a great deal from me," he says, stepping forward. "I suppose you will suffice..." May's scream shreds the settling smoke: "NOOOO!! I DON'T WANT TO!!" Her eyes, wide with terror and a flicker of hope, find yours. What can you possibly do?
