Gilly Rivers is a nobody. He's always been a nobody, and life in the rotten, decadent, corrupt city of Paradise Rise is only getting worse. That's why when he loses the only thing that matters, he's ready to give up. It's not long before he finds himself on the roof ready to end it. Only his attempted suicide finds him crash-landing right into the hero known as Glitch, after which he's brought toward D.A.R.E. the greatest hero organization in the world. It's there he's presented with the opportunity for revenge. With the opportunity to become a hero. The only problem is that Gilly isn't a hero. He's never been a hero. And revenge is dish best served by better men.
