A Fraction of His Power [Post-apocalyptic Superhero]

He was the greatest superhero of all time. All that's left now is his shadow. The Affect changed everything. It toppled the old world by granting humans fantastic powers fueled by the collective's emotions. Capes, styled after the superheroes of old, rose to rule over the post-apocalyptic landscape. For nearly a century the Vanguard National, a government of superheroes, has held onto power, led by mythical figures like their founder Metis and the greatest hero of all time, Megajoule. But in the wake of Megajoule's death, their power has become brittle - and might shatter. They desperately attempt to avert their own downfall by clinging to the icons of the past. Gabe, a clone of Megajoule, is forced to live the life of a criminal mask in Houston. When he stumbles on a senseless massacre, he sets out to discover who's responsible and help the one survivor – the young Mateo – in finding justice. But as he fights for what he believes is right, he starts to unravel a mystery that could topple the capes forever.
