Plot Summary:
After surviving the chaos of Nazi-occupied Rome in 1943, Matilde, Fulvio, Cencio, and Mario have gone their separate ways—each haunted by the war and their own extraordinary abilities. But peace is short-lived.
When a new threat emerges from the ruins of Europe—a mysterious cabal seeking to weaponize “freaks” to forge a new world order—the former troupe must reunite. Drawn back together by fate and a desperate plea for help, they embark on a perilous journey through war-torn cities, hidden laboratories, and fantastical battlefields.
But the stakes are higher than ever: the enemy has their own superpowered soldiers, led by a cunning and ruthless visionary who believes freaks should rule humanity, not hide from it. As alliances shift and betrayals cut deep, the four friends must confront not just the enemy… but the question of whether they are protectors of mankind or harbingers of a strange new age.
