In an alternate 1950s, following a catastrophic airstrike, the U.S. government authorizes a groundbreaking experiment to restore national morale and counter an impending global threat. Spearheaded by the ambitious Dr. Lincoln Broxley and the steadfast Major Jonnie Sanders, the project transforms a diverse group-including soldiers, a nurse, an FBI agent, and two enigmatic figures-into enhanced beings with extraordinary abilities.
Dubbed Ne Plus Ultra, these individuals are meant to serve as symbols of hope and resilience. But beneath the patriotic veneer, cracks begin to form. As Dr. Broxley's ambitions spiral beyond control, he unearths the ancient artifact known as The Amaranth and assembles his own formidable team-the Synthetic Seven. With a dark future looming, Ne Plus Ultra must rise against the very forces that created them before the world succumbs to an irreversible fate.
