Escaping Apokolips is hard enough when you don't know your real name, struggle with PTSD, and have a giant crush on your greatest enemy ... but escaping as a hero will require nothing short of a miracle.

Scott Free is a student of Goodness Academy, on the planet Apokolips, ruled by Lord Darkseid. Sounds pretty cool, right? Wrong. Scott Free wants nothing more than to leave Apokolips for planet Earth; the only problem is that no one has ever left Apokolips of their own free will… or alive.

Scott Free has a plan, a foolproof plan, a plan his found family depends on for their freedom. But that plan never involved falling in love with the leader of the Female Furies, Big Barda, the only person in charge of making sure he never ran away.

From Coretta Scott King Honor's winning author The Parker legacy, Varian Johnson and Afrofuturist artist Daniel Isles (@DirtyRobot) comes the story of an escape plan that will require a miracle to come true. Luckily for Scott, everyone calls him MISTER MIRACLE! Okay, okay, nobody calls it that ... yet.
