Deadweights (2024-)

The daily grind for Mickey and Leo involves cleaning up after the latest city-leveling brawl. These two henchmen are tired of the mandatory monologues and the property damage that never gets deducted from their pay. Their disillusionment is a quiet constant in a world where the heroes spend more time on press tours than patrols, and the villains are mostly just exhausted. The pair navigate their dead-end jobs, dodging collateral and existential dread in equal measure, their camaraderie the only reliable thing in a profession built on betrayal. The city skyline is permanently scarred by yesterday’s battles.
