Apocalypse Wow! 2! Preview!

Three years have passed since the events that occurred in the first part of what could become a very bizarre tradition. Alberta has somewhat recovered after a nuclear strike from Iran. A global recession and the fears of another terror attack still premiate the air of the western hemisphere. During this time, Dean Williams had since moved to Hollywood when the tales of the Alberta Incident became a box office success and now feels the pressure to continue the success with a new script while dealing with his insane fanbase, and demands from his wife Karen and their daughter Faith.

Meanwhile back in Canada, things are not the same as they were when Dean went Hollywood. While Dean’s friends Kevin Brody and Donnie Bellum (Now an owner of a multimillion dollar movie rental service via the internet) have not been on speaking terms since a falling out over the movie rights, Dr. Sarah Bellum has been covertly providing information to Kevin on all projects related to Section 31: a covert government agency. Safely secure on his northeastern Alberta homestead with his life partner - trigger happy Ariel Toroshenko-Brody - Kevin has outsourced a trio of hackers and social misfits to decode everything on Section 31 to learn more about their projects and their access to what appeared to be alien technology. And scrappy temp Ryan Jeffries has since died in combat duty.

So when the Williams’ come back for a speaking engagement, a gathering storm of events occur: crazy old people keep showing up urging them to “break the chain”. An ambitious, young, and charasmatic politician named Jason Saxon – the current minister of homeland and public security who is the midst of a leadership race within his party - seems more than anxious to speak the remainder of the so-called “Vegreville Six”, but what are his true intentions? With rumours circling of a major terror attack on the US and Canadian Government, what role will our heroes play? Is the world in further danger? What celebrities will be mocked/maimed/killed this time? How can I abuse time travel more than the third season of Heroes? And does this look infected? All these questions and more will be answered in a course of 30 days…. Except the infection. If you’re a doctor, could you please look at this before it gets worse?

p.s. Stop Jason Saxon!
