On TV
Hughie has a mediocre life. He’s a mild-mannered guy with a boring job, who still lives at home with his Dad -- in the same bedroom he grew up in. The only light in his life is the love of his life: his girlfriend, Robin. That is, until a speedy superhero named A-Train runs through Robin, eviscerating and killing her on impact. Desperate for justice, Hughie’s recruited by anti-“Supe” vigilante Billy Butcher, and Hughie’s world is turned upside down as he finds himself caught in the middle of a war against superheroes – who, as it turns out, are neither super nor heroic.
In comics
