"So some of us belittled the Marvels. That wasn't important. They weren't here to win the approval of the petty and small - minded. They were here to save the innocent.
To save people like Gwen."

They are the giants that walk among us; heroes and monsters; saviors and men. They are the Marvels, and to photographer Phil Sheldon, they are the embodiment of mankind's greatest aspirations.

It is a journey promising fame and redemption for the heroes he loves, but which may end in terror and tragedy.
