Marvel: Age of Hero

Owen Colt didn’t ask to be reincarnated. And definitely not into the most chaotic, explosive universe of them all: the world of superheroes. No systems. No fancy nanotech suits. No powers (or so he thought)... Armed with nothing but the memories of a past life and a burning will not to die as cannon fodder, Owen made the only choice he could: train, harden himself, and survive. From childhood, every step he took was an investment in his future: intelligence, weapons, tactics, hand-to-hand combat, military strategy. He became the perfect soldier... only to walk away just before the world was about to explode. Because he knew that once caped gods started falling from the sky, the first to die would be the regular soldiers. His plan? Stay out of it. Don’t be just another name on a grave. His reality? A corpse at his doorstep, an assassin trained like a Black Widow, and a conspiracy that drags him straight into the deadliest chessboard in the entire Marvel Universe. Because sometimes, you don’t choose to be a hero. Sometimes, chaos chooses you. And Owen Colt... is more than ready to hit back. Quick Note: Yes, he will have superpowers. The story is based on the MCU, but I’ll be incorporating elements from the comics too, including certain heroes. I have no intention of making this a harem—unless explicitly requested. At most, the protagonist won’t have a fixed partner, but rather a “friends with benefits” type of relationship. DISCLAIMER: This is a work of fiction based on the MCU and Marvel Comics.
