Lashback — Kevin Rau

Nightmonger snaps under the pressure placed by the heroes over the previous week, as they dismantled several of his drug operations, chop shops, the supervillain lair at the Portia Hotel, and the destruction of his brothel at the hands of Lady Rapture's people. He decides to send a message to the heroes of the city to back off ... by killing them. Numerous major battles occur between the heroes and villains as his new supervillain, Nuker, gains in power.

The new band of human wanna-be heroes, Brighthorn and company, investigates the "superhero lair" mentioned by Diva and Sharae at Blacklight. It starts a chain of events where the men arm themselves against the mutants and continue their investigation into the death of the woman in the Anarchist zone.
