The Nocturnals could be described - both in and out of character - as a spiritual successor of the defunct Moonlighters. They're a street-level supergroup that emphasise smarts and sleuthing as much as straightforward fisticuffs. Of course, that's not to say there isn't plenty of the latter. At the end of a long night of stakeouts and schemes, there's nothing quite so satisfying as delivering your archnemesis a good, old-fashioned knuckle sandwich. It's also important to note that the tone of the Nocturnals may be a shade darker than your regular four-colour superhero team but it's not bleak, hopeless or - dare we say - ''grimdark''. The Nocturnals are at times brutal and uncompromising, harbour shaky relations with the authorities and are all too willing to break a few eggs to make an omelette, but they most assuredly ''aren't'' rampaging psychopaths. Sure, others might question their methods, their legality, maybe even their ''sanity'' - but in the end, they're fundamentally the good guys.

The Nocturnals could be described - both in and out of character - as a spiritual successor of the defunct Moonlighters. They're a street-level supergroup that emphasise smarts and sleuthing as much as straightforward fisticuffs. Of course, that's not to say there isn't plenty of the latter. At the end of a long night of stakeouts and schemes, there's nothing quite so satisfying as delivering your archnemesis a good, old-fashioned knuckle sandwich. It's also important to note that the tone of the Nocturnals may be a shade darker than your regular four-colour superhero team but it's not bleak, hopeless or - dare we say - grimdark. The Nocturnals are at times brutal and uncompromising, harbour shaky relations with the authorities and are all too willing to break a few eggs to make an omelette, but they most assuredly aren't rampaging psychopaths. Sure, others might question their methods, their legality, maybe even their sanity - but in the end, they're fundamentally the good guys.

A motley band of vigilantes hailing from all walks of life; of varied temperments, tactics and philosophies, united in a single-minded pursuit of justice. Theirs is the world that lies beneath the glitz and glamour, in the shadow of the towering skyscrapers; a world of bullets, blades and brutal beatdowns. A world where quick wits, insight and hard-boiled detective skills are just as invaluable as science and superpowers. Cloaked in darkness, the Nocturnals stalk the rooftops and shady alleyways. Ever-vigilant, nothing escapes their notice. Often out of sight but rarely out of mind, they're not about to let their city go to the dogs. Not tonight.
