The Superheroes’ Union headquarters is under siege, and our heroes must do all they can to defeat the unstoppable Choler and his henchmen!

The legendary Black Wraith returns to the line of duty, just as Tek-Slammer, a new superhero, makes their debut.

Then, Little Emiko, Nekkotron’s child pilot, bravely faces off against Choler’s newfound strength in a no-holds showdown!

Now that we’re barreling toward the final chapter of The Center Holds, what can the Union do to survive in the end?
