Michelle Rosenchild is a young woman whos grown sick of working in retail. After being betrayed by Corporate America, she turns into a supervillain known as Black Thunder, who vows to expose the corruption of modern society.

Together with her pals Captain Silverware, Deerboy, and Minor Inconvenience Man, they try plotting world domination, only to realize its incredibly difficult when youre poor and dont know how to build a super death-ray.

Instead, they decide to plot a bank robbery, so they can make some quick cash, and maybe buy their own secret supervillain island somewhere.

But along the way, Black Thunder gets recruited by a gang of terrorists known as The Furies, who are hell-bent on tearing down the citys government.

Now, Black Thunder is faced with a dire choice: Should she help The Furies with their acts of villainy...Or defend the corrupt system she claims to hate?

THE LEGEND OF BLACK THUNDER is a black comedy which deconstructs the idea of the traditional comic book supervillain. In a society thats overrun with poverty and corporate greed, were presented with a startling question: Who are the true villains in the world todayAnd have they already won?

Along the way, we focus on the personal and moral struggles of disillusioned non-heroes, who have abandoned the idea of truth and justice in the modern world. In a world without heroes, all thats left is to be a villain!
