Night-Wolf has been Cardinal City's protector for over a decade, but what does it take to put on the costume night after night and wage war on crime? How can you keep fighting when you've lost 38 kid sidekicks on various dangerous missions? When younger, more able heroes are ready to replace you? When you've lost the respect of the police and the public? This hard hitting mockumentary aims to answer these questions and many others, giving a unique spin on the mythology of the superhero. As Night-Wolf wrestles with his own inadequacy, trains a new sidekick, Toothbrush Boy, and battles arch-criminals such as The Hoop and Jeremiah Kaine - all the while his exploits followed by a documentary team. A team that captures every mistake, every misplaced boast and every mistimed fracas. Night-Wolf gives you the superhero film as you've never seen it - unmasked!
