Synopsis
In a world ravaged by pandemic, one man's desperate quest for survival unleashes powers that could save humanity – or destroy it. Welcome, To Lance Lawthorn's apartment, where he was reassessing his existence, when a cosmic event shattered the ancient barrier that had long shielded Earth from mysterious energies. In an instant, his world—and every living being within it—was bathed in a magical force that humans were never meant to endure. He had only wanted to break free from his nine-to-five routine and start his own business. Instead, he got his superhero origin story. While the world wrestled to adapt to its new normal, Lance struggled to get used to his enhanced strength, enhanced speed, enhanced senses, and a whole lot of problems he wanted nothing to do with. Now, he must navigate a world where power is measured in stats, and the line between hero and villain blurs with each skill gained.
