Downloading Flame

Penepolis City, 1959.

Flame, an aging superhero active for more than two decades, has begun contemplating hanging up the cape. Especially since one of her toughest cases has come back to haunt her: a villain on death row, specialized in releasing hidden urges.

Isabella Bellucci has been a Flame fan since she was a little girl. Reaching the end of her twenties, she’s about to get married, but a first encounter with her childhood heroine changes everything.

But is it possible to love someone who’s always covered by a mask? And what is the point of the lesson brutally taught across the city; of what happens when the id becomes stronger than the superego?

Trigger warning: mentions suicide attempts.
