Atlas City. A metropolis populated by the very best meta-humanity has to offer. People come from all over the world to catch glimpses of heroes such as Goldenray, Titanic, and Viridian as they patrol for villains. On the surface, a glimmering jewel of modernity and heroism. Beneath though, wounds fester. Governmental cuts have led to the most vulnerable of society falling through the cracks as rampant corporatism funnels resources from the lowerclasses to the uppers. Large scale financial crime is ignored while the little people suffer due to fiscal austerity measures.
It's in the midst of this deprivation that Michelle Church exists.
