This volume collects issues #7-12 of the 2014 Dial H series, continuing the story of the mysterious H-Dial that transforms ordinary people into superpowered heroes. As new dialers emerge in Metropolis, the narrative explores the consequences and chaos that arise when anyone can become a hero—or a villain—for a limited time. Written by China Miéville, this arc deepens the series' inventive take on superhero identity and the hidden costs of power.
