Publisher’s description

The man known as the Dragon is found in a field of fire, and without any memory of who he is, or where he's from. Chicago is a city where the super-human villains out number, out gun, and out power the police, and the heroes are falling like flies. Can Lieutenant Frank Darling convince Dragon, perhaps the only person the strength to stand up to the mutants, to join the police department?
