Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: After spending a century fighting in a losing war against the most unstoppable force the galaxy has ever known; the confederacy is no more, and humanity is all but lost or enslaved. Keyanna, a shape-shifting organic nanite Rehuman Being and Naya, a Torrey 9 (high gravity world) born human, travel to Deslar, the godmaker world, the last stronghold of humanity. In the past, Deslar has endowed Keyanna with the ability to temporarily travel thru time. On this occasion Keyanna, a self proclaimed space pirate, born on the pirate ship The Twenty-Wun Stars, along with Naya, who like being the superhero off her home world, travel back in time to stop the war before it ever begins. Over three thousand years after the final battle over the soul of mankind, between God, Satan, and Nefarious, destroys the earth, a new chapter begins. The resulting hyperspace blast from the earth’s destruction flings the last of humanity into the furthest reaches of space on their surviving starships. Over 300 years passes before these star cast seeds of mankind reclaim the stars, and begin to find each other. The first of the new worlds to find each other and reconnect old humanity on new worlds, would eventually form The Confederation of Republic Worlds. This union would be marked with the erection of the Jara Timekeeping Tower on Jara Prime, broadcasting a synced time throughout the known universe. This is the Jara Era.

Book excerpt: After learning about the disappearance of his mentor, Mecha Knight, Kevin Jason (Bolt) allies with a powerful yet aloof superhero to find him, although their conflicting personalities and methods make for teeth-clenched teamwork. There is far more to Mecha Knight's disappearance than meets the eye, however, and soon Bolt finds himself surrounded on all sides by many of his old foes, back to exact their revenge on him. Things become even more complicated with the return of a long-lost family member, forcing Bolt to move quickly and decisively if he is going to not only find Mecha Knight but survive. All of that pales in comparison to the secret of the mysterious Project Revival, a secret that threatens to destroy the entire superhuman community unless Bolt can stop it. If he can stop it, that is.

The book covers in detail the iconic superhero comic book creators and their unique contributions in their quest for realism, including Julius Schwartz and the science-fiction origins of superheroes; the collaborative design of the Marvel Universe by Jack Kirby, Stan Lee, and Steve Ditko; Jim Starlin’s incorporation of the death of superheroes in comic books; John Byrne and the revitalization of superheroes in the modern age; and Alan Moore’s deconstruction of superheroes.

Book excerpt: As the deep sea once gave rise to pirates, so also did deep space . The crew of The Twenty-Wun Stars is one such group of opportunistic souls. This exceptional group of serendipitous scoundrels find themselves under the leadership of Captain Jake Wade. The swaggering mojo at which this man moves thru life is literally infectious. Skirting the law where they can, looking for their next score to make payroll and trying to keep the ship online, is always the order of the day. UNMADE Many titles have laid out the lives of the past, present and future crew of the pirate ship The Twenty-Wun Stars. All of that has brought us here, where we get the formal introduction to Jake Jaimon Wade and his ascent to captain. In the middle of another firefight from a deal gone sideways, the crew of the Twenty-Wun Stars is aided by two ladies who are from125 years in the future. In a mad scramble to escape a fight where they are outnumbered and outgunned the ship crashes out of hyperspace onto an undiscovered, isolated advanced steampunk planet. The two young ladies from the future are trying to find the woman who in their time has destroyed the CRW (Confederation of Republic Worlds), killed or enslaved billions and driven humanity to the brink of destruction. It is their hope to find her before her march down the path of war ever begins. Having reason to believe at some point she was a member of the crew of the Twenty-Wun Stars, their trek thru time has brought them on board the ship the day it crashes onto a steampunk world deeply steeped in superhero/super-villain culture. As fate would have it, the crew of the Twenty-Wun Stars fits right in with their unique array of gifts and talents. While the ship is being repaired and the two ladies search for the woman who destroys the future, run-ins with the local super powered elite up the stakes that threaten the crew, the ship, this new world and ultimately the CRW. Over three thousand years after the final battle over the soul of mankind, between God, Satan, and Nefarious, destroys the earth, a new chapter begins. The resulting hyperspace blast from the earth’s destruction flings the last of humanity into the furthest reaches of space on their surviving starships. Over 300 years passes before these star cast seeds of mankind reclaim the stars, and begin to find each other. The first of the new worlds to find each other and reconnect old humanity on new worlds, would eventually form The Confederation of Republic Worlds.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt:  When Superman debuted in 1938, he ushered in a string of imitators--Batman, Wonder Woman, Captain Marvel, Captain America. But what about the many less well-known heroes who lined up to fight crooks, super villains or Hitler--like the Shield, the Black Terror, Crimebuster, Cat-Man, Dynamic Man, the Blue Beetle, the Black Cat and even Frankenstein? These and other four-color fighters crowded the newsstands from the late 1930s through the early 1950s. Most have since been overlooked, and not necessarily because they were victims of poor publication. This book gives the other superheroes of the Golden Age of comics their due.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Superman may be faster than a speeding bullet, but even he can't outrun copyright law. Since the dawn of the pulp hero in the 1930s, publishers and authors have fought over the privilege of making money off of comics, and the authors and artists usually have lost. Jerry Siegel and Joe Shuster, the creators of Superman, got all of $130 for the rights to the hero. In Empire of the Superheroes, Mark Cotta Vaz argues that licensing and litigation do as much as any ink-stained creator to shape the mythology of comic characters. Vaz reveals just how precarious life was for the legends of the industry. Siegel and Shuster—and their heirs—spent seventy years battling lawyers to regain rights to Superman. Jack Kirby and Joe Simon were cheated out of their interest in Captain America, and Kirby's children brought a case against Marvel to the doorstep of the Supreme Court. To make matters worse, the infant comics medium was nearly strangled in its crib by censorship and moral condemnation. For the writers and illustrators now celebrated as visionaries, the "golden age" of comics felt more like hard times. The fantastical characters that now earn Hollywood billions have all-too-human roots. Empire of the Superheroes digs them up, detailing the creative martyrdom at the heart of a pop-culture powerhouse.

Book excerpt: Superheroes have been the major genre to emerge from comics and graphic novels, saturating popular culture with images of muscular men and sexy women. A major aspect of this genre is identity in the roles played by individuals, the development of identities through extended stories and in the ways the characters inspire audiences. This collection analyses stories from popular comics franchises such as Batman, Captain America, Ms Marvel and X-Men, alongside less well known comics such as Kabuki and Flex Mentallo. It explores what superhero narratives can reveal about our attitudes towards femininity, race, maternity, masculinity and queer culture. Using this approach, the volume asks questions such as why there are no black supervillains in mainstream comics, how second wave feminism and feminist film theory may help us to understand female comic book characters, the ways in which Flex Mentallo transcends the boundaries of straightness and gayness and how both fans and industry appropriate the sexual identity of superheroes. The book was originally published in a special issue of the Journal of Graphic Novels and Comics.

The unique friendship the boys forged defined an era in both their lives. When he left for college, Rickie promised Bernie they would meet again. Now, decades later, he is making the pilgrimage back to Ohio to fulfill that promise.
