Class warfare! In this time of inequality and ever-rising costs of living, it’s time to take a look at superheroes living on very different sides of the class divide! The working class heroes with day jobs and the upper iron crust who can afford to be as relaxed as Robert Downey Jr.!

We dig into many questions: Should Peter Parker even be able to afford rent in Manhattan? Is Tony Stark a nepo baby? Is there a better use for the many wings of Wayne Manor that Batman probably never sets foot in? Are there any actual “self-made” superhero billionaires? Is it even possible for telapaths like Emma Frost to make their riches ethically (no, and she doesn’t care)? Is Matt Murdock in the 1%? What are the ethics of a superhero owning a corporation or being a landlord? And why do so many mutants come from old money, anyway?

But first! We make up new heroes and villains on the spot in a new Character Storm! this time inspired by… targeted ads!? About time they were good for something. Prepare for the sensational character finds of 2024: Black Silk! Muscle Duck! And Creatino, the Cowboy Cat! All this and superhero science, sort of? So much value in this episode!
