(In a housing subdivision not far from downtown)
A young man has not been home from work for long, he gets situated and comfortable in front of his computer and begins checking his email. At the same time, he turns on a pair of police scanners on his desk, tuned to the largest emergency frequencies in town. Why someone like him would have this is unclear to anyone but himself. The reason for this is because he is a superhero, the Steel Revenger.
The young man, Robert Cunningham listens in for anything that seems too big for local law enforcement to handle, and requires his intervention. No sooner than he had finished his email, something came over the police band, something about a fire at a bank downtown, a fire that could not be put down. Listening closer, he heard that the bank was somehow being robbed at the same time, granted it was hearsay from escaping bank tellers, but Robert did not want to take chances.
"Okay, let's go." He said to himself as he left his home office and made his way to the backyard.
In a tool shed, he had hidden what made him the Steel Revenger, a suit of home-built powered armor. He wasted no time getting it on and activated. He then made his way out of his subdivision through some woods planted as scenery by those who built it and ran towards the bank, the enhanced strength granted by his suit allowing him to run faster than most cars given the traffic.
