SERIES PREMIERE
RUBEN KWAN is a 50-year-old firefighter who’s been afraid of fire his whole life. Instead of running into burning buildings, he pushes papers, living in the shadow of his father—who died a hero on the job. After 25 years in the LAFD, he’s firmly in the middle of an unremarkable life…until his new wife gets pregnant and a random act of courage reveals that Ruben is FIREPROOF!
New York Times-bestselling writer BRIAN BUCCELLATO (NO/ONE, The Flash, Chicken Devil) teams up with star artist STEFANO SIMEONE (THE LAST DAYS OF BLACK HAMMER, RADIANT BLACK) to tell the totally relatable (sometimes cringey) story of a middle-aged dad who’s about to find out that his new powers have major strings attached.
Armed with a new costume (and ice packs for his achy knees and back), brand-new hero Ruben Kwan starts using his powers for good and gets the attention of a mysterious pair of operatives in the process: the Maroon Suits, who have their own designs for his future. On the home front, Ruben must decide whether to tell his pregnant wife Annie about this new double life that, for the first time, has him feeling like he is living up to his father's legacy.
