In a fractured New York City, an elemental collision causes different versions of the city’s most notorious neighborhoods from across the multiverse to converge into a single reality. Ghostly apparitions now haunt the streets of Queens. On the Lower East Side, a rogue artificial intelligence has taken over the streets. A hundred blocks north, the time travelers are hosting a block party in Harlem. And that’s just the beginning… Our guide through the divisive mutation of New York’s past, present, and future is none other than Old Dirty Bastard himself. Follow him as he takes us through strange, urgent, and powerful stories that pit freedom and oppression, wealth and poverty, love and loss, and even life and death like dice in a cosmic game of chance.
