Superheroes may be fictional, but the powers I’ve gained are all too real! Fang Yuan now controls the mighty Vought Company, and the more famous the heroes he signs, the more abilities he unlocks. At Level Three, he gains every skill a hero possesses. At Level Four, he awakens a unique aura that reshapes the battlefield itself. Thus begins the rise of the most shameless—and most brilliant—master of superhero packaging the world has ever seen. Fang Yuan pushes the “Vought spirit” to new heights: hype, spectacle, and ruthless manipulation behind the scenes. Who says the Joker and Homelander can’t be superheroes? Who cares about truth, when every lie earns Fang Yuan, the great Father of Vought, more power? Titles fall into his lap one after another: Mutant Leader. Father of the Avengers. Strongest Superhero. World Manipulator. (And, of course, the… Collector of Heroines—but let’s cross that one out.) And when someone dares to stop him? When they say he can’t open his company? Fang Yuan just smiles and gestures toward his “employees”: Phoenix, Superman, Lucifer… each armed not only with unimaginable powers, but also a touch of martial arts. It all began the night Professor X and Magneto cornered him at the door of Mystique’s room… and from there, destiny took a very different turn.
