Gripped by dementia, godlike Epitome tears apart a city, and no one can stop him. Will his madness destroy the entire world? Not if Hericane recruits the one big gun who stands a chance in Hell of stopping her father in his tracks. But the battle of the century between the super-charged titans might just kick-start the Apocalypse instead of stopping it. "Heroes of Global Warming" The world's hottest hero has gone rogue!

But when she teams with Bonnie Taggart, internal affairs investigator for the Superhuman Protectorate, the search leads in unexpected directions.

"Forced Partnership" Hero-on-sidekick violence explodes in this hard-hitting super-hero tale. Why does Partycrasher, dark avenger of the night, give his sidekick the beating of a lifetime? Could it be the cowled crusader has fallen under the influence of sexy reformed bad girl Linda Loveblind, aka Partygirl?

Down-on-his-luck masked avenger Man-Child takes the case, but can he save the remaining Small Wonders from a killer with a twisted crush fetish?

Download or read book The Omicron Six written by Endy Wright and published by Nicholas Wright. This book was released on 2019-12-19 with total page 372 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: They do not know what they are. Together they will learn what they are. But will it be too late as their destruction grows ever closer? Cooper Callister cannot speak in school. He lives on a farm outside of town with good and loving parents who do their best to support their son with his special problems, and some very special gifts as well. Coupe "Single" Daschelete is a streetwise kid essentially surviving on his own. A victim of abuse and neglect he has learned not to trust anyone and to always be on his guard. He is a bright kid, an exceptionally bright kid, with many unique qualities of his own. But he is more interested in finding his next meal than anything else. The two teens are unlikely holders of secret powers. Yet they are. Cooper can sense the thoughts of others. In fact he can do it so well, it becomes maddening noise in his head, so much so he cannot speak when surrounded by all the other students. Coupe is the only one that stands out. Coupe can sense what Cooper is going through and then learns to silently talk to him without a word spoken between the two. When Cooper sneaks off into the woods to escape the noise of the school ground, he gets followed by the school bully and it is Coupe that comes to his rescue, at first. It turns into a royal beating for Coupe. As Coupe takes the beating meant for Cooper, Cooper reveals he has another hidden secret and uses it to save Coupe. From this encounter their friendship is born and together they come to realize not only just what special talents they have, but also just how they came to get them. They learn that their special powers are no mistake. They learn just how they got them and just how powerful they are going to be, but only if the survive the destruction that is coming their way, a threat that they do not even know exists! "The Omicron Six: The Next Generation of Superheroes provides the initial lure of being a superhero story, but actually, it's much more. Endy Wright probes the emotions and motivations of his young heroes and considers the world which continually challenges them in many ways. This approach imparts psychological depth and a component of self-discovery that goes beyond the revelation of superpowers to probe the evolution of close connections that begin with shared adversity. It's a superhero story on steroids, holding different forms of action, bad and good guys, and encounters that defy the usual image of a superhero as being a relative loner who doesn't let anyone in on his secrets. Multifaceted, peppered with social issues and fantastic scenarios, and representing a gem far beyond the usual superhero clichés, The Omicron Six: The Next Generation of Superheroes cultivates a blend of social inspection, superpower evolution, and psychological draw to keep all ages thoroughly engrossed in an unexpected saga that involves the creation of something that may ultimately destroy them all."

Download or read book Learning to Write Superhero Stories Using the Best and Worst Superhero Movies to Write Better Novels Comics and Screenplays written by Brian McKenzie and published by Hyperink Inc. This book was released on 2012-10-23 with total page 118 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many writers suffer from the depressing misconception that popularity and critical acclaim are mutually exclusive. Encouragingly, from 2000-2012, 20 superhero movies scored above 70 percent on Rotten Tomatoes and 17 of them grossed more than $200 million at the box office. Hopefully, the enclosed reviews of four great superhero movies and two of the genre’s most notorious disasters will help you identify ways to distinguish your writing, sharpen your skills, and broaden the appeal of your work. EXCERPT FROM THE BOOK The Amazing Spider-Man 1. To the extent that you cover a superhero origin story, I’d recommend focusing on things and approaches we haven’t seen much of before. I think it would have helped to either spend less time covering the origin story or make it more different than Spider-Man 1. That said, I thought ASM’s approach to the death of Uncle Ben was smoother and more thematically effective–when Peter has the opportunity to stop the robber, there’s a plausible and immediate threat to bystanders. Peter declines and Ben gets killed seconds thereafter. This makes Peter’s motivation for a life-changing decision (becoming a superhero) more plausible. In contrast, in Spider-Man 1, Peter gets torn up because he doesn’t get involved in a relatively minor situation with a police officer present, with only a faint connection between Peter Parker letting the robber go and the robber killing a civilian. 1.1. Peter plays a more active role acquiring superpowers. He was only in the laboratory because he stole an ID and figured out how to thwart a keypad. I think the scene develops him more than just getting lucky at the science fair in Spider-Man 1. (Likewise, he makes his own webslingers instead of getting them from the spider-bite). 2. Beware the idiot ball – make sure there are believable consequences to actions. Peter Parker displayed his superpowers in public so many times that I think his classmates would have to be idiots not to notice something was amiss. (For example, the NBA-caliber dunk? Or breaking a goalpost with a football? Or lifting enormous Flash Thompson by the neck?) When characters make decisions, there should be consequences. For example, if the character is reckless with his powers, maybe other characters come closer to figuring out what’s going on. Or at least start asking difficult questions. 3. Speaking of consequences, I thought the crane scene was kind of cute. (Peter saves a construction worker’s kid and the construction worker later pulls in favors at the climax to help Spider-Man). It helps build a contrast between Spider-Man’s decidedly limited means and, say, the lavishly-funded Avengers or X-Men. I think it’s also a more subtle and effective way of showing he’s more of an everyman hero than we saw in previous Spider-Man movies (e.g. subway passengers throwing themselves between Dr. Octopus and a crippled Spidey felt sort of hokey to me).
