Ursidae Down: Near Death's Grasp (Vol 1)
"A Man whose Eyes spell Death, Mouth spit Pride, and Ears eat Lies."
Gomong Ursidae tasted Heaven in his mouth. As a former firefighter who survived Project Omega, he was blessed with super strength, flight, and muscle manipulation.
He quickly became 'The Pearl White Death', the supreme fist of government. With great power came great fortune. And with great fortune came.... attention. He was being seen, he was being heard, and he was greatly praised throughout the nation of Cansington. Heaven warped and twisted him until he was but a hollow shell. He did not bat a single eye when he had to break down protests. He did not bother to even raise his son. His wife leaving him was but an inconvenience.
But with one choice that he made with rare sympathy, brought forth his torment.
A child he saved from experiment ignited a flame of rebellion. The government he diligently served under imploded on itself. The new dictator, Captain Dooludoo the former Head of Military, had made him retire. His Heaven burned to ashes and left him bare. Captain told him that Gomong will need to redeem himself by doing things the government wouldn't dare do out of fear of public outrage.
A hopeless chase.
But now that he discovers the existence of a relic that would make him invincible, Gomong sets out on a selfish quest. He has to infiltrate an enemy nation in exchange for the relic. The limelight will be his once more.
