Steve and four superhumans he never met before in his life assemble on an uninhabited island. The five superhumans meet in a time of turmoil during the Cold War and dawn of the South American revolution, but they're propelled to the future where they learn that the past is not set in stone. On top of it all, everyone is way out of their comfort zone as they find out they're no longer on Earth, but on an alien space station in a different galaxy. Time travel is a thing many do not believe possible, but if you could go back in time, why would you? To change the past is a paradox which even superheroes seem not to escape from except that this time it's not a paradox for the five superhumans, known as the Five Ghosts. They are not from the future or present, and their time traveling present is our future. Steve, known as Stargazer, leads this band of brothers to find a way back home by saving Queen Cassandra and stopping Korvax from obtaining time traveling powers and disrupting the order of the universe. Steve has to adapt quickly and learn to deal with the weird situation and the team's assertive personalities. Steve grew up watching the stars with his unique superhuman vision, but seeing the Sun as a very small white dot from another galaxy stirs him into action as a leader and hero. Queen Cassandra is near death, but the Five Ghosts fight through an army of rock like aliens to revive her from a parallax prison chamber. The time comes when the Five Ghosts see the opportunity to return home, but what they return to is not the same world they learned to appreciate. Earth is in danger, and they're the only ones who can change history, or should it be said, the future? Stargazer, Ghost, Rat Bastard, Spot, and Master find themselves in the middle of a worldwide plot to assassinate leaders and superhumans. Their only advantage in stopping the onslaught is no one knows who they are or what they can do. But things get worse as the assassins they think are easy to stop are created to kill superhumans and anyone else who stands in their way. The team is overwhelmed by the number of targets to defend, and they're left to wonder if they chose correctly for even trying, leaving their old lives permanently in the past. This is the sixth book of the Superhero Epic series, and follows a growing story line of good versus evil.
