Storyline
In a world filled with superheroes, Robert Robertson, an ordinary human, pilots a giant robotic suit as Mecha Man, carrying on his father's legacy. When his suit is irreversibly damaged in a battle against his archnemesis and father's killer, Shroud, he's forced into retirement. Soon after, the Superhero Dispatch Network (SDN) makes him an offer: they’ll repair his suit if he agrees to lead and coordinate the Z-Team, a group of former supervillains seeking redemption, as they rush across Los Angeles to save the day. But every mission comes with choices: the kind that define what makes someone a hero, with or without superpowers.Read more
