Not Your Hero: Rise of the Villain

When golden light awakens superpowers across the globe, nations collapse into a corporate-ruled federation where "heroes" enforce a fragile peace. But Richard didn't emerge from an asylum to play savior. Slightly unhinged and dangerously brilliant, this experimental genius has one obsession: cracking the code to artificial eternal life. His research will shatter the carefully constructed lies of the superhero regime, exposing the rot beneath their shining facades. In a world of capes and corporate overlords, sometimes the real villain is the one asking questions no one wants answered.
