This adventurous series chronicles the elite and experimental troopers of Clone Force 99 (first seen in "Star Wars: The Clone Wars") as they navigate their way through a gauntlet of daring missions in a rapidly evolving galaxy during the Imperial era in the aftermath of the Clone War.
Members of the self-titled "Bad Batch" are a unique squad of clone commandos who vary genetically from their brothers in the main Clone Army, with each soldier possessing a singular exceptional skill, which makes them extraordinarily ruthless soldiers and a formidable crew when confronted in combat.
