Wait lmfao. Wait, wait, wait. Darkness man’s entire arc kind of has the feel of a Hallmark holiday romance.
Overworked superhero coming from the big city to a small town. He’s exhausted by his old life and yearns for something simpler and more true to his ideals. Something closer to Omaha. Meets this really cute, calm dude that tries to get him to relax and take part in a local [monster] pastime. Takes him on a night hike. Asks him out for another in the future.
Cody isn’t the exact reason Darkness Man stays, buuuuut… he is a large contributing factor to Mitch’s happiness in choosing to stay because he gets another superhero partner to form a league with.
