The golden age of heroes is decades past. The government could not condonevigilantism and now metahumans are just citizens, albeit citizens withincredible talent, who are assisted in achieving normal lives (including findinggood fits for their talents employment-wise) by a federal agency.

Rustymay have been a kid during that glorious age but he remembers his idol,Sentinel, saving lives and righting wrongs — until he was outed in anincredible scandal that forced him into isolation. When a gay friend of Rustyliving in the Czech Republic goes missing, Rusty is forced to acknowledge thatwhile the world's governments claim that super teams are outdated and replacedby legal law enforcement, there are simply some places where the law doesn'tprotect everyone — so he manages to find and recruit Sentinel to help himfind his friend.

But the disappearance of the friend is merely one movein a terrible plot against queer youth. A team of supers may be old-fashioned,but this may be a battle requiring some incredible reinforcements.
