The experiment failed. Doctor Cockroach has no idea why, but he didn't get near enough time to figure it out -- when a familiar face from his past finds him and his mother, they're forced to leave, and wind up in a city in America. Doc can't anticipate what'll happen next, especially when he meets a group of people in leather jackets and an ongoing class war. All he can do is hope he won't get caught in the crossfire. (tw for a lot of mentions of abuse, alcohol, lots of characters with various degrees of trauma, murder, blood, nsfw/sexual humor, and heavy subjects along those lines. viewer's discretion is advised.)
