Leo Holt put a governor's son in a refrigerator with two broken legs. The feds noticed. Now he has a choice: disappear into a government supermax where nobody walks out, or join their brand-new superhero team. He picked the team. He hates the colors. He hates the name they gave him. He hates that his team leader says "synergy" and means it. But here's what he hates most: they're actually starting to make sense. Leo has strength and durability nobody can explain, not even him. A mad scientist with ten doctorates is running tests. His new teammates are inconveniently useful. And the threats they're facing make his old drug-dealing targets look like a warm-up. An ecoterrorist cult is cutting deals with tree-men who can drag people underground. They're building a throne for something unknown. And if Leo screws this up badly enough, the supermax isn't just a threat anymore. It's a guarantee. What to Expect: ‣ An antihero who thinks tactically, acts brutally, and is deeply annoyed to find himself caring ‣ Progression built on learning and developing practical skillsand figuring out logistics before innocent people start dying ‣ A world where abilities come from mutations, parasites, mad science, magic, or just reading the wrong book ‣ Tactical fights, costume arguments, and the terrifying importance of good PR ‣ Horrible violence tl;dr: Super strong antihero gets conscripted into superhero work and slowly, reluctantly, starts becoming a real deal superhero.
