A superhero and supervillain duo decide to put their differences aside and open a bar exclusively for those with superpowers, although it turns out to be much more difficult than they imagine.
SYNOPSIS:
The story starts as the superhero FLASHFIRE battles with his nemesis GLACIER. After smashing into Glacier’s hideout, they continue fighting before both of them gets exhausted. They begin talking to each other, complaining about how old they’ve gotten and recalling memories of their battles, including the time Glacier held an obnoxious actress hostage and when Flashfire escapes from one of Glacier’s ice traps. Eventually, they come to the conclusion to start a bar together on the condition that Glacier doesn’t break any laws and Flashfire stops preventing crime. To gain trust, Flashfire reveals himself to be DAN WHITNEY, a TV news anchor and Glacier reveals himself to be TONY MEDLEY, whom Dan already knows since he’s gotten arrested so many times.
The duo decides to open a bar that specifically caters towards people with superpowers, both superheroes and villains.
They meet at Dan’s home, where his wife Jen is vehemently opposed to the idea. Dan manages to convince Jen to be on board, and the three agree to open the Neutral Zone Bar and Grill.
They meet with NINJA BOB, a government official, and file all the appropriate forms before contacting ROBERT PACKMAN to help renovate the bar. Later, PETER who sells foodstuff and drinks gives enough samples to Tony and Dan for them to get drunk which turns into them buying too many supplies.
Dan then goes to a “hero’s meeting” and pitches the idea to fellow superheroes who although initially skeptical, agree, and Tony does the same but in a “villains meeting”. They have their opening and despite some small conflicts, the pair make a profit and the villains and superheroes manage to get along.
A while goes by and the bar continues to perform well, with superheroes and villains steadily coming in to grab a drink together. However, as the customers consistently damage the property of the bar, affecting their profits, Dan starts to slowly lose his patience. Tony tries to think of more avenues to make money such as karaoke or paint nights but nothing seems to work. Eventually, one of the villains, DOCTOR MORGUE, pitches the idea to steal some diamonds that are being exhibited at a museum to which Dan refuses but Tony secretly agrees to.
As Glacier, he goes to rob the museum and finds Flashfire there. They argue, but agree it’s better to close the bar than to break the law. They host a final night but to their surprise, JULIE ERIKSSON, a millionaire, comes to the bar and it’s revealed she is ARBITER, a superhero. She states that she was watching over the duo at the night at the museum and since they did the right thing, she was willing to help invest in the bar and ultimately keep The Neutral Zone Bar & Grill afloat.
