THE ROGUES' GALLERY (TRG) is a semi-anthology, 6-episodic, limited, streaming series, about a team of 5 anti-hero misfits from different popular genres and cultural backgrounds, dealing with interpersonal relationships while some seek redemption for a past that haunts them. All the while, avoiding enemies trying to wipe them out & fighting to survive. Think of the action & drama of 'Blacklist/Suicide Squad' with the more adult comedy version of 'Friends/The Big Bang Theory' with relatable and lively personalities and life problems, complicated with their own special skills and/or abilities.

REM is the surprise sixth student of Master Gideon whom he took under his wings years after the elder students abandoned their school and master. He is an idealist and wholeheartedly believes in his Master's teachings and philosophy. Upon his teacher's death, REM sets out to find the remaining students using his own special gift/power, both to warn them of the Masked Man looming and the dangerous group that wants to cover all loose ends and kill them. But his inexperience and idealism may clash with some of the others, especially Nick, who sees REM as just young, inexperienced, and believes all the Master's preaching "nonsense".
