Description
25 years after Houston was destroyed in a brutal supervillain attack, Jay Martin is accepted into the Texan Hero Network. Tasked with this sacred duty, he takes on the alter ego of Quickwit and vows to always protect Neo Houston. Unfortunately, despite achieving this lofty goal, Jay is unsatisfied with his life as a hero. With the power of "common sense" he's not only isolated from the nonsensical world of caped crusaders, he's also categorized as a lame C-class sidekick. Ridicule comes from supers, civilians, and magical talking dogs alike. Not everyone is so critical, though. Gannet introduces himself to Jay as a devoted yet eccentric fanboy. The truth cannot be hidden by a domino mask, however: Gannet is no ordinary civilian, he's the new villain of Neo Houston, Stygian! Stuck between a hard place and a scantily-clad villain, Jay takes on the impossible mission of defeating Stygian at his own game. But as Jay learns more about his foe, he begins to wonder about his role as a hero, Gannet's true feelings, and the secrets of the Network. Can Jay balance it all as he uncovers the truth? Or will he lose his mind in this topsy turvy game of villain versus hero?
