Comics in utero: Failanx
Working with Rewfoe and Jimbo on this one.
Just another 'normal person tries to be super hero' schtick, focusing more on character development and other random anti-themes. Not looking to make it too long, have the universe all thought up, but I figure we'll test the waters with a short story.
The Overall Pitch:
Like any other big city, Renaissance has its share of slums, sky scrapers, and criminal activity. A recent wave of masked vigilantism has died down, leaving in its wake a high body count and two angry sides of the law. The Police announce vigilantism an outright crime punishable by 25 to life, while the underworld clean up the streets with an outright hunt of any leftover "mask fags" that still think they can topple the 'negotiations' that keep the Police corrupt, and off their backs.
With the Police, the Public, and the media, so scornfully flaming the ideal of the masked do-gooder, many surviving vigilantes have been scared off. Now enter Sullivan and Jennifer, two people from opposite sides of life, each with their own reasons, now decide to take up the mask late in the game. Anonymous, armed and armoured, their first forays into crime fighting could bring them justice, or just death.
