Inhaltsangabe

A global pandemic kills millions of people worldwide before suddenly - and mysteriously- vanishing. In the aftermath, a small percentage of survivors spawn a new race of superhumans around the globe. Known as Reborns, these superpowered individuals must choose sides in a new world order where fear and fascism are rising threats. Select powered individuals form The Resistance, an underground force formed to fight against increasing tyranny in the U.S. and across the globe.
