Revenge burns bright. But first, he has to clean up the mess. Twelve years ago, Nathan Morgan’s life went up in flames. A battle between the city’s golden hero, Apex, and the villain Pyrebreaker left half the district in ruins—and Nate’s family buried in the rubble. Pyrebreaker vanished. Apex got a parade. And Nate? He got a shovel. Now, at 26, Nate spends his days cleaning up after heroes and villains alike, crawling through wreckage to pull survivors from the ashes. It’s a thankless job, but it’s all he has—until a freak accident awakens the Damage Control System. Suddenly, Nate has the power to stop time, stabilize collapsing buildings, and even restore damage like it never happened. But the system comes with a catch: the bigger the disaster, the greater the reward. To grow stronger, Nate must step into the splash zone of every superpowered brawl, risking his life to fix what others break. But Nate doesn’t just want to clean up the mess. He wants revenge. Against the heroes who failed to save his family. Against the villains who destroyed them. Against the system that turned his life into collateral damage. With the power to control time and repair destruction, Nate is no longer just a guy with a shovel. He’s the Damage Control Guy—and he’s about to show the world what happens when the powerless fight back.
