“For a thousand years no human has been the champion. He wants to be the first.”
On a distant space station far in the future, the best fighters from every planet vie for the championship in an intergalactic fighting competition. After over fifty years of no human contenders, Steve Armstrong emerges having trained all his life for a shot at the title, only to come up against a ruthless extra-terrestrial crime lord who wants him dead.
