a reporter sets out to interview people, with strange and unbelievable stories, that aren't real pretty, as he believes that the world, they live in was meant, to be filled with colorful costumed heroes and villains, a age of marvels if you will, however something went wrong and prevented that all from happening, now the world is bleak and depressing, he's gonna find the point where that happened.
Jack Thompson
imaginative, and disillusioned. Jack believes the world should be filled with colorful heroes and villains but instead finds bleakness. He interviews people with unusual stories to uncover what went wrong. His search leads him to a mysterious woman who hints at a catastrophic event that changed the world's trajectory. Jack's quest becomes an obsession, driving him to confront harsh realities.
Lena Carter
alluring, and mysterious. Lena hints at being part of a group that witnessed or caused the catastrophic event that changed history's course but refuses to reveal more details to Jack. Her allure and evasiveness draw Jack deeper into his investigation as he becomes increasingly obsessed with uncovering the truth.
Mark Benson
skeptical, and haunted. Mark asserts he was once involved in a secret government project involving superhuman abilities but lost his powers after an accident involving an experimental serum. His story raises questions about government involvement in the absence of superheroes and hints at deeper conspiracies.
I didn't believe either of their stories.
At least, not the way they presented them.
Sarah Jennings wasn't a superhero turned librarian and Mark Benson didn't lose his powers after getting dosed with some government serum in a freak accident.
No, there was more to their stories, more to all of the strange and unbelievable people I'd been interviewing the last few weeks.
There had to be.
I mean, the alternative was too depressing to consider.
I was a reporter, chasing down a crazy lead, one I hoped would pan out because if it didn't, then I'd have wasted my time with a bunch of dead-end interviews.
Interviews with people who claimed to have done things they couldn't have possibly done.
And it wasn't just the people—I was chasing down leads on weird objects and events that made no sense at all.
None of it made sense until you considered one thing: superheroes.
Or more accurately, the lack of superheroes.
Think about it—by all rights we should be living in an age of marvels.
A world filled with colorful costumed heroes and villains bopping each other on the head as they fought for world domination or saved humanity.
