Conspiracy Theories Meet Superhero Reality

ALL IT TAKES

It's there for anyone to see: There are dark forces at work on the world, working to destroy civilization. All it takes for evil to triumph is for good men to stand by and do nothing. We need a good guy.

NOT ALL HEROES WEAR CAPES-BUT SOME DO

For a generation, individuals have arisen with super powers, able to change the course of history, or at least save a few lives.
