The description seen on pre-order advertisements reads:

To the world’s population, Kro-tan’s arrival was a godsend. Mongo’s technology was a quick cure for a ravaged Earth, and people were eager for any new technology he provided. However, as his influence spread, so did his desire to recreate Earth in Mongo’s image for him to rule. Dependence on Kro-Tan’s technologies made people compliant and easy to subjugate. Some even welcomed it. Those who didn’t disappeared, and by the time our heroes noticed, it was too late.

The world is divided, and the Defenders of the Earth are the only heroes who can bring it back together. The thrilling conclusion to the mini-series event!
