Sergeant Riot was protecting the world from an alien invasion one minute, only to wake up in a mental institution the next. She isn’t sure what’s going on, but she’s going to crack skulls until she gets to the bottom of it. Most of the patients at the institute are what one might expect from this sort of facility: some are manic, some are weird, and some are full of drool. The wardens are strict, but they’re not used to handling the caliber of crazy that Riot brings to the table.

Massive fleets of unknown origin had simultaneously appeared across the globe, attacking major cities and small towns. It was a violent display of full-spectrum global dominance - swift and clinical, rendering much of the world's military forces into smoldering piles of ash before they even had a chance to respond.
