Dispatch is set in an alternate Los Angeles where superpowers are commonplace and thus have divided society between "supers" and "normies". While there are independent superheroes, several of them work for the Superhero Dispatch Network, which provides services and protection for their subscribers. When the superhero Robbie Robertson III's mech suit is critically damaged, he joins the SDN in an attempt to continue fighting crime, while his father's killer, Shroud, plots to claim the Astral Pulse for himself.
