The Wretched: Ascent of An Anti-Hero

A golden man screamed across the sky and laid waste to the Earth. He appeared out of nowhere, striking down cities with golden blazes of light. Then, he disappeared. Where he went nobody knows. In the aftermath, the Powered emerged. Humans granted superhuman abilities that transcend all logic and physics. The world is in tatters, communities spread across the globe with limited contact, ruled by battles between humans and villains. All the while monstrous creatures known as the Wretches stalk the barren, scarred wasteland. With incredible powers of my own saving the world is a journey of putting one foot in front of the other.

Madwoman With A Gun

As we moved through the building, all we could hear were more and more explosions coming from outside.

How the PHA hadn't arrived yet, I didn't know.

We made our way through the building until we came to the front door, a quick peek outside showed that we had actually somehow looped back around to where we first got hit by the black hole bomb.

The destruction on the road was immense. Fresh craters were still smoking on the ground, and the black hole explosion that Brainwave had somehow made had dragged most of the ruins down with it.

Brainwave herself was no longer on the street, she'd likely gone off somewhere to hunt for us, but there were still some members of the mob in the road.

If we went out now we'd have the element of surprise on our side to launch a counter-attack, but we'd also be vastly outnumbered, and without Wildthing around the amount of force we could actually use against them was fairly limited.

But it was also the only choice that we had.
