Legendary Stratos League: Escape Deathrace 2182 (12 Issues)

Praise for LSL

ISSUE #1: Cammy Zooka

In Superb City, Cammy Zooka trains as a rookie driver for the Legendary Stratos League, competing in Deathrace while tearing through the streets to protect the city when no one else will. Orphaned by the Kingpins, Cammy survives on grit, instinct, and firepower, never backing down even when her battles leave wreckage behind.

With the League already fractured by recent disappearances, Cammy begins this mission at the height of caution. One of only a few LSL members still standing, she presses on while the foundations around her strain and crack. When a routine rescue drags her into Superb City’s criminal underworld, Cammy realizes the losses are not random, but connected. Strange portals scar the skies. What starts as another high-speed confrontation reveals a threat far beyond street crime. As engines roar and explosions light the day, Cammy races toward a truth that will change the world forever.

ISSUE #2: Rebecca Jones

Rebecca Jones is the backbone of the Legendary Stratos League. As co-founder, instructor, and strategist, she holds the League together while teaching the next generation to survive Deathrace and the streets of Superb City alike. But cracks are forming fast.

When Millard Fillmore is arrested following his father’s murder at the Calming Clam, Rebecca is dragged into a courtroom battle that puts the League itself on trial. Accusations mount, the media turns hostile, and the city’s power structure moves to shut the LSL down. As political pressure closes in and storms gather overhead, Rebecca’s recurring nightmare of falling into darkness begins to feel less symbolic and more prophetic.

By the time the truth reveals itself, Rebecca is no longer fighting for control of the League. She is fighting for her life.

ISSUE #3: Trey Force Part 1

Trevor Fook grows up unwanted, abandoned to the streets of Superb City and shaped by cruelty long before he ever enters Deathrace. Brief moments of connection fade quickly, leaving him alone with a growing hunger for control, recognition, and power.

Claimed by the Kingpins, Trevor is renamed Trey Force and molded into a ruthless enforcer under Ziggy Cochrane’s command. When he enters the Grand Canyon Deathrace, Trey finds himself racing against members of the Legendary Stratos League, including faces from a past he never escaped. The race is brutal, spectacular, and unforgiving. By the time it ends, blood has been spilled, loyalties shattered, and something inside Trey has irrevocably changed.

This is not the birth of a hero.
It is the ignition of a hatred that will reshape the Deathrace forever.

ISSUE #4: Trey Force Part 2

Trey Force has traded innocence for ambition. Under the command of Kingpin boss Choncho, he proves his loyalty through sabotage, betrayal, and bloodshed, striking at the Legendary Stratos League from the shadows. Each victory hardens him. Each act pulls him further from the man he once was.

But when a Kingpin gathering leads Trey deep beneath an abandoned prison, he uncovers something far older than crime or power. A buried cavern. Ancient remains. A force that does not answer to human ambition. Drawn toward it despite every warning, Trey makes a choice that cannot be undone.

What follows is not revenge.
It is a transformation.

And the world will never be the same.

ISSUE #5: Mistamontiel Jones

Mistamontiel Jones has spent his life outrunning grief. After surviving the Deathrace that killed his father, he vanishes across the ocean and resurfaces in England with nothing but knives, instincts, and unfinished business. There, he collides with Rebecca, leader of the Midnight Mayhem clan, and is pulled into a world of underground racing, hard loyalty, and earned trust. As Mista proves himself lap by lap, the past refuses to stay buried. His name carries weight. His bloodline draws eyes. And when Midnight Mayhem qualifies for Deathrace X, it becomes clear the Stratos League is no longer a memory. It is becoming Legendary.

ISSUE #6: Ariel Air-Ravers & Flamin

The Shimoda twins are torn apart when their father, Ken, is imprisoned for creating a chip that grants machines true sentience. Forced to flee to Superb City, the siblings choose different paths. Donald is drawn into the orbit of Trey Force and the Kingpins, while Ariel follows her instincts toward the Legendary Stratos League. Training beside Cammy Zooka, Ariel proves herself on the track, in the garage, and in the air, earning the call sign Air-Ravers. With Flamin at her side and designs of her own still unfinished, she steps forward as the League’s newest hope. But as champions vanish without warning, the skies begin to fracture. Ariel’s rise is only the beginning.

ISSUE #7: Reegad Morton

Reegad Morton and GoodDay are thrown through a portal and stranded in a brutal realm of fire and stone, where rivers of lava carve the land, and flying creatures hunt in swarms. With both Stratos destroyed and no way home, survival demands instinct over strategy. In a moment of fury, Reegad slams his monkey wrench into the rock and awakens a power he does not understand, restoring what should have been lost. To escape, the two must treat the landscape itself as a Deathrace, racing across collapsing cliffs and molten ground toward an uncertain exit. Elsewhere, the Legendary Stratos League reels as allies vanish, old bonds resurface, and a far greater threat begins to close in from beyond the sky.

ISSUE #8: It's a GoodDay... TO DIE!

GoodDay has always carried the ghost of failure. He could not save Cammy Zooka’s parents from the Kingpins, and he swore never to fail her again. Years later, as Cammy faces the brutal Hill Climb Deathrace, GoodDay watches from above, guarding her every move as she races on the edge of survival. Victory should bring relief, but unease settles within the Legendary Stratos League. While chaos spreads and tensions rise, Shooter McGavik plays the hero, hiding something only GoodDay senses is wrong. With no proof and no allies willing to listen, suspicion hardens into obsession. Protect Cammy. Protect the League. Even if it costs him everything.

ISSUE #9: Shooter McGavik

Shooter McGavik was once the most dangerous driver in the Stratos League. One brutal Deathrace shattered his body, ended his career, and left him rebuilt by Kingpin money he never fully trusted. Years later, he fights his way back into the Legendary Stratos League, hiding his debts behind heroics and a perfect smile. As storms gather over Superb City and the League fractures from within, Shooter discovers the truth he was never meant to see. The game has changed. The enemy is no longer human. And the next Deathrace will not be run for glory or survival, but for the fate of everything that still stands. Shooter has always flirted with death. Now death is answering back.

ISSUE #10: Sniperjackie & Kahuna

The invasion of Superb City leaves no room for hesitation. When Legendary Stratos League pilot Sniperjackie arrives too late to save Cammy Zooka at the dam, she is forced into the sky as the city fractures below. While survivors fight toward escape and others make their last stand in the streets, Jackie takes Kahuna and flies straight into the storm. Chasing the signal of a reopened portal, she pushes beyond the city’s borders in search of the teammates who vanished. With Superb City burning behind her and the fate of her team ahead, Jackie must face a brutal question: is abandoning the city the right price to pay for a chance to save them? What she discovers will change her forever.

ISSUE #11: Twisted Fook

Twisted Fook completes his transformation and claims the staff of ancient design, its power fused with the Golden Monkey Wrench he once won in blood. Guided by Queen Zilla’s account of a stolen world, Fook crosses into a forbidden ocean realm where a lone Leviathan still reigns. To seize dominion, he must face the creature in a battle of storm and scale, bending the sea itself to his will. Victory grants him more than control of a realm. It gives him the authority to build. As Zillians pour back into their supposed ancestral world and the Deathrace takes shape across fire, ice, poison, and lightning, something unexpected slips free from Fook’s triumph. A long-forgotten spark.

ISSUE #12: Escape Deathrace 2182

At last, Twisted Fook unleashes his Deathrace. Four realms of fire, ice, poison, and lightning stand between the Legendary Stratos League and survival, each guarded by colossal OMG-Zillas aiding his menace. As engines roar and worlds collide, old wounds reopen, and fragile alliances are tested at full speed. Cammy Zooka feels the pull of something unseen at her side, while Rebecca Jones fights to hold herself together as the road turns against them all. Fook's Deathrace is no longer just a trial of skill. It is a reckoning. And when the storm reaches its peak, a single whisper cuts through the chaos, binding past, present, and sacrifice into one final run.
