For years, Hero Trackers has covered the biggest news in the world of super powered heroics. What we didn't know is that some of the most influential cases all had one thing in common: Vigil. Join Maria Kennedy as she uncovers who Vigil was and the impact he had on some of the most well-known supers of our age. Vigil: An audio fiction, superhero thriller in ten parts. Produced by Button Podcasts in collaboration with All In Productions. Transcript: Music, ominous and heroic. Maria: Hello, Maria Kennedy here to tell you about a special report we've been working on at HeroTrac Media. We're going to reveal the life story of mysterious hero that has never been covered by a media outlet before. Madden: There are people that have convinced us that they are "heroes" because they have power. Vigil: Urgent move! A flash of electricity and the sounds of a struggle. Vigil: Blos, what's happening? Sounds of fire, coughing. Blossom: I have no idea! Parse: You got yourself a ticket to an experiment you don't want to see the results of! Vila: You cannot anticipate everything. You aren't omniscient or prescient. Unless I'm missing something, you're just smart and thorough. Madden: But having a superpower and telling everyone you're doing the right thing isn't what makes people heroes. The sound of morse code. Unknown: The truth shall be revealed!
