Set in 2020, Lonnie Machin is a very charismatic and politically aware college student who is disgusted with the way the world has become. People are constantly shouted down for expressing their opinions, idiots are in charge of the entire country, money is valued more than anything, and the world has gone wrong. Tired of his once beloved country constantly being destroyed by greed and incompetence, Lonnie decides to take the law into his own hands and motivate people to fight the establishment, fight for their freedoms, and make America the country of do as you please. During his time in college, Lonnie tries to ace his Political Sciences class. But behind the scenes, he dresses in a gold-coloured mask and red hooded trench coat and gives speeches to the downtrodden, fed up, and extremists of Gotham. He tells them that they don’t need to follow society’s rules, especially if the rules don’t make a lick of sense. Having rallied so many people to his cause, Lonnie (now calling himself Anarky) gives everyone golden masks and masterminds various attacks on Gotham’s political establishments. He even leads an attack on his own college, after finding out that his college’s dean was a con artist who didn’t have an actual diploma, and was thus unfit for his position. He also leads an attack on the Gotham Police Department, as the commissioner is corrupt and also blatantly racist. However, this is all taking a severe toll on his mental health, making him grow madder over time.
