"To the world, I am a symbol. To me, they are just idiots." At seventeen, Richard has everything a teenager could ever dream of: fame, a camera-ready smile, and the title of Destroy—the eighth strongest hero of the Starboys. But beneath his star-spangled cape hides a rotten truth. Richard doesn't save people out of the goodness of his heart; he does it for the applause, secretly despising every civilian he rescues. Trapped in a hierarchy that keeps him in the shadow of the charismatic Electro and under the iron fist of their leader, Buger Milson, Richard fights to unlock the dark fragments of his past. What happened in 2016? Who were the men in white lab coats? The answer arrives from the sky in a San Francisco alleyway, and it might be the only thing capable of shattering the mask of the hero who hates us.
