About this series
After the biggest prison breakout of the century, Alex Fry (Beams) and Rubberman struggle to stay on top of a new criminal organization, the Dark Collective. Led by the charismatic Three Fingers, the Dark Collective's unique form of organized crime leaves the two heroes overwhelmed.
The Dark Collective may be the least of their worries, however. King Xero, leader of the Zero Knights, is leading an army of Zero Knights to Golden City with the intent of razing the city to the ground. And this time, King Xero plans to make sure that Beams can't stop his plans.
To defeat the Zero Knights and protect Golden City, Beams must ally with a lesser evil in the form of the Dark Collective.

Eighteen-year-old Alex Fry (Beams) thinks he's seen it all in his year and a half as a part-time sidekick. That's why he's surprised when the police call him and his boss to investigate the gruesome slaughter of a local crime gang. Nineteen of Golden City's most wanted killed in one night by one man. The culprit: A supervillain knight known as Slasher seeking to conquer Golden City in the name of his mysterious king. Slasher is willing to kill anyone who stands in the way of his conquest of the city and Beams and Rubberman are at the top of his hit list. Now Beams must use all of his cunning, strength, and powers to defeat Slasher and save Golden City. Yet when Beams' own failing powers threaten to kill him, defeating Slasher may be the least of his troubles.

Waking up on his day off, Alex Fry (Beams) sees an impenetrable magical barrier in the sky over his hometown of Golden City. It turns out that the barrier was constructed by the Zero Knight called Mirar, who has come to Golden City to avenge the death of his fellow Zero Knight from the previous book. To that end, Mirar has trapped every man, woman, and child in the city, and even worse, has set a 24-hour-deadline, at the end of which everyone inside the barrier will die. To save his friends, family, and neighbors, Beams must ally with an old enemy of his, whose magical knowledge is the key to lifting the barrier. Yet Mirar leaves nothing to chance, sending his deadliest servants after Beams to ensure he cannot save the city. With time rapidly running out, will Beams be able to save himself, much less the whole city and everyone within it?
