About the series
In this 2018 IDW miniseries, writer Jason Ciaramella and artists Zach Howard, Conner Herbison, and Michael Penick explore the fallout of a world where superheroics have gone terribly wrong. Set in the gritty aftermath of a beloved hero's corruption, the story follows a former sidekick grappling with the wreckage of his mentor's legacy. It matters as a taut, character-driven deconstruction of the cape genre, delivering a noir-tinged tragedy that resonates beyond its four-issue run.
