Alien gladiator Ballista escaped to Earth. They call her a "superhero" here, whatever that is. The monsters hurtling through space call her "prey."

Ballista never knew her own people. Since childhood, she has fought and killed for the entertainment of tyrants. But now, on Earth, her peerless combat prowess has found new purpose.

And new allies. Adam Smasher's ego outweighs his exponential powers, but he means well. And Symian deserves far better than the dominant species here is willing to give him. Humanity has potential, though. Ballista can see herself making a home here.

Until they arrive. Soon there may not be a planet left to call home...
