Megalodon Collective

Born: October 1

Colossus buckles under the pressure, and comes face to face with the most powerful oceanic predator that ever lived. Now fate will pull humans together as they wager their changes of survival against the most fearsome creature that ever dominated the ocean, and pit the technology and machinery of man against beast
