While our kickstarter is running, we figured we'd share some other shows we love!
Set in a future similar to our present, Vigil takes place in a world where superhero conglomerates have taken charge of the health and safety of the general population. The podcast starts when investigative journalist, Maria Kennedy, sets out to do a special report on the life and career of recently deceased support hero, Vigil. Maria gets more than what she bargained for when her investigation leads her to uncover some of the super heroic industry’s darkest secrets.
On a personal level, as Lumi, Vigil is another show I've personally loved listening to so far. I absolutely adore its initial in-universe framing device, and Vigil is an instantly likeable character you want to learn more about. It puts a unique spin on the superhero world, while playing with recognizable tropes I adore. In addition it has been created by the talented Adam Qutaishat, who you may encounter in The Mechadova Engine.
