In a world where power is feared and identity is weaponized, one young man dares to stand at the center of the storm.

Havoc isn't your typical superhero. He's powerful, yes—but he's also gay, angry, and struggling to find where he fits in a society that both fears and fetishizes people like him. Gifted with extraordinary abilities and a heart burdened by the weight of the world's expectations, Havoc must navigate a landscape where superhuman threats aren't always the most dangerous enemies—sometimes it's the people closest to you, the systems meant to protect you, or the fear inside yourself.

As Havoc fights to protect a city on the brink of collapse, he's forced to confront his own past, the truth behind his powers, and what it really means to be a hero in a world that sees him as anything but. Essence is a bold, emotional, and explosive journey about identity, acceptance, and the fire that burns within when the world tries to snuff you out.
