Ten years ago, the nation of Singapore sank into the Pacific Ocean. The underground terrorist network known as The Seven Seals took credit for the largest act of terror in human history. In the aftermath, the United Nations created a strike team of highly trained covert operatives with one mission: locate, identify, and eliminate The Seven Seals’ secretive leader. The team’s clandestine affairs were to always remain in the shadows – until their final, explosive confrontation with The Seven Seals resulted in a large-scale tragedy too bloody to cover up and too tragic to ignore.

Disgraced and disavowed by the governments that trained them, the world’s most dangerous secret agents have been convicted for their crimes and sentenced to serve time side-by-side in the one place capable of holding them: their old island headquarters, Fort Cyclone – now known in the media by the derogatory nickname “Fort Psycho.”

And that’s where the official story is about to go terribly, terribly wrong.

WARNING: YOU HAVE UNTIL AUGUST 2026 TO REACH MINIMUM SAFE DISTANCE FROM FORT PSYCHO #1 – the brand-new, ticking time bomb of comic book firepower from master storytellers Matt Kindt and Brian Hurtt detonating this summer in comic shops everywhere with covers by Hurtt, Lewis LaRosa (Punisher MAX), Inaki Miranda(We Live), David Rubin (Black Hammer), Kyle Starks (Wrestle Heist, Kill Them All), and Dustin Weaver (Avengers, Infinity)!
