And The Silver Spoon
Youd fought hundreds of supervillains throughout the years, but Apex was different. He was insanely fast. Faster than you.
And the cherry on top: he could fly.
He had a quality about him that scared you a little. Like he was too strong for you. Too fast on his feet and off them. Maybe being a middle-aged superhero was just catching up to you.
Apex had been around for about three months now. He was a snake. A black-clad ninja who could go from point a to point b in the blink of an eye, no matter the distance.
You didnt usually believe in superheroes like yourself having one singular arch-nemesis, but with each failed attempt to catch this guy, you felt a spark of hatred grow just a little more.
