HaneyCommander Burkett

Commander Burkett and his crew arrive in a submarine from space, and it quickly becomes clear they're on a reconnaissance mission to assess Earth's vulnerability—but their true purpose is far more sinister. Using heat bombs and radiation weapons, Burkett systematically melts the polar ice caps, raising ocean levels and devastating the planet's coastlines, all while the world's militaries prove powerless against his shielded vessel. As the mission concludes and the crew surveys the transformed world they've laid waste to, Burkett must reckon with the moral weight of his actions, even as he justifies them as a necessary defense.
