The Power Fantasy (2024)
The Power Fantasy is a high concept superhero thriller set in an alternate late-20th century. Six humans across the globe gain abilities so powerful they are treated as geopolitical superpowers, equivalent to nuclear weapons. Their very existence destabilizes the world order, forcing nations to adapt to their presence while living under the shadow of catastrophic destruction.
The story examines ideology, morality, and power, with each superhuman embodying different archetypes such as a divine guardian, a telepathic diplomat, and a rebel leader. Tense, character driven, and politically charged, the series has been described by its writer as his ultimate statement on the superhero genre.
