'Going straight is no way to die…

'…or so Simon and Nancy figured.

'Badasses with cool nicknames, cooler powers, they loved the dark side. Their names were in the papers, their crew was feared and they were deep in an evil love.

'But that was a while back. No one tells you what the dentist bill is like when a superhero hits you in the face. Or mad science budgets. Or jail time.

'These days, no big scores, no names in the papers, no costumes. Safe. Dull.

'But now there’s an opportunity. Come out of retirement. Big cash, big excitement.

'There’s just one problem. They’re crooks now, not villains. No costumes, no dramas.

'For Simon and Nancy, what’s the real score? Money, or action?'
