Book excerpt: Wally Finkelstein is your average Joe. Your typical underdog—not super attractive, not super wealthy, but he does have stability and happiness to offer. And to his girlfriend’s surprise, he turns out to be super in other departments. He’s always been very attentive to the opposite sex, never leaving them unsatisfied. But having not found “the one” yet, Wally hasn’t been ready to give himself fully. April Daily has changed that, and when they finally do the deed, he wants to shout it from the rooftops…and somehow finds himself soaring above them. Turns out Wally has a history he knew nothing about. Can this ordinary Joe live up to extraordinary expectations? More importantly, can his relationship with April survive the kind of demands this revelation will bring?

Book excerpt: “When has geezerhood been handled so appealingly? . . . A true American hero is born.” —Albert Goldbarth, National Book Critics Circle Award–winning author of Saving Lives Meet Oldguy: your regular aging superhero whose powers have dwindled over the years, and whose very mechanics are seriously fizzling. In seriocomic misadventures, Oldguy valiantly attempts to continue his former heroism in a somewhat wry version of Faulknerian endurance, defeating his enemies time and again—if not through superhuman abilities, then at least by “outliving the sons-a-bitches.” With its comic book-style illustrations, Oldguy inhabits a space all to itself—not strictly a poetry collection, not quite a graphic novel, but a hybrid sure to delight. “An exhilarating read that I didn’t want to put down except to laugh and to shake my seventy-eight-year-old head in admiration.” —Ron Koertge, author of Shakespeare Makes the Playoffs

Book excerpt: Everybody in Chicago has a "superhero sighting" story. So when a villain attacks editorial assistant Gail Godwin and she's rescued by superhero Blaze, it's a great story, and nothing more. Until it happens again. And again. Now the media has dubbed her Hostage Girl, nobody remembers her real name, and people are convinced that Blaze is just her boyfriend, Jeremy, in disguise. Gail's not so sure. All she knows is that when both Jeremy and Blaze leave town in the same week, she's probably doomed. Who will save her now? Yet, miraculously, the villains lose interest. Gail is able to return to her life … until she wakes up strapped to a metal table by a mad scientist who hasn't read the news. After escaping—now more than human herself—she's drawn into a secret underground world of superheroes. She'll have to come to terms with her powers (and weaknesses) to make it in the new society, and it's not easy. After all, there's a new villain on the rise, and she has her sights set on the one and only Hostage Girl.

Book excerpt: Writer Mat Johnson (HELLBLAZER: PAPA MIDNITE), winner of the prestigious Hurston-Wright Legacy Award for fiction, constructs a fearless graphic novel that is both a page-turning mystery and a disturbing exploration of race and self-image in America, masterfully illustrated with rich period detail by Warren Pleece (THE INVISIBLES, HELLBLAZER). In the early 20th Century, when lynchings were commonplace throughout the American South, a few courageous reporters from the North risked their lives to expose these atrocities. They were African-American men who, due to their light skin color, could pass among the white folks. They called this dangerous assignment going incognegro. Zane Pinchback, a reporter for the New York-based New Holland Herald, barely escapes with his life after his latest incognegro story goes bad. But when he returns to the sanctuary of Harlem, hes sent to investigate the arrest of his own brother, charged with the brutal murder of a white woman in Mississippi. With a lynch mob already swarming, Zane must stay incognegro long enough to uncover the truth behind the murder in order to save his brotherand himself. He finds that the answers are buried beneath layers of shifting identities, forbidden passions and secrets that run far deeper than skin color.

Book excerpt: In the near future all of humanity is caught up in the digital world. Every aspect of human life has been digitized and integrated in the worldwide online network. The people of the world trusted the brand new technology as they changed their cash for digital coins and gave their private personal information freely to social engagement websites. The world was slowly becoming slaves to their digital personals and this new technology. As the young pioneers of and inventors of this new and frightening technology sought funding and formed companies, the sleeping giants of the wealthy and elite of the world began to take notice. Quietly the rich bought out every budding coder, developer, and creator. They did this under the guise of shell corporations, education funds, and subcontracting. Once the people driving the technology innovation of tomorrow were under their control they began to shape the world’s technology for themselves. The rich and elite of the world had humanity under its control but it was difficult and tiresome work. That was why the Deepweb Network was created. They used all of the coders and developers they had bought to create a technological and social control system that would do the hard work for them with basic input from the few richest individuals on the planet. The fledgling Network started slowly. They formed small cells with individual tasks and strategies. They targeted political and social infrastructures. They used massive ad campaigns to mask the movement of funds and assets. Once the Network had grown strong enough, they launched a coordinated attack on all fronts – physically, economically, and digitally. Before anyone realized it, the Deepweb Network now had controlling shares in all corporations, governments, stock exchanges, and most digital websites. They had drained all bank accounts of money and transferred it to themselves. Almost overnight the digital age of humanity had been subverted and corrupted. The Deepweb Network controlled the flow of money and employment. Poverty rates drastically increased globally. Those unable to afford the patronage of the people within the Network were kept poor by the digital strangulation of the economy. The Network controlled all education through privatization. Prices for a good education were heavily inflated so only the elite’s children could afford to learn the skills needed to work in the world they had created. No one was able to stand up to the Network. They were either bought, wrapped up in political red tape, or all of their money was gone and they did not have the means to attack

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Costume defines the superhero, disguising and distinguishing him or her from the civilian alter ego. The often garish garb expresses a hero's otherness and empowers its wearers to seek a primal form of justice. This book provides the first interdisciplinary analysis of the superhero costume and investigates wide-ranging issues such as identity, otherness, ritual dress and disguise. Analysis focuses on the implications of wearing superhero costume, exploring interpretations of the costumed hero and the extent to which the costume defines his or her role. Using examples across various media (comic books, film, and television) with case studies including The X-Men, Watchmen, real-life superheroes such as Phoenix Jones and Pussy Riot, and audience activities such as cosplay, The Superhero Costume presents new perspectives on the increasingly popular genre. A lively and thorough account of superhero fashions throughout history, The Superhero Costume will be essential reading for students of visual culture, popular culture, fashion and cultural studies.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book addresses what a superhero body can do by developing several “x-rays” of the superbody’s sensoria, anatomic structures, internal systems, cellular organizations, and orthotic, chemical, or technological enhancements. In short, these x-rays offer what we might describe as a metamorpho-physiological approach to the superheroes in feature films, theatrical cartoon shorts, and Netflix television series. This approach examines the ways in which the “substance” of superheroes, which includes their masks, costumes, chevrons, weapons, and auras, extends into the diegetic environment of the film, transgressing it, transforming it, and corporealizing it, making it emblematic of the shape, dimensions, contours, and organismic workings of one or more of our major organs, members, orifices, fluids, or cell clusters. Thus the superhero film, as this study claims, works to make us more aware of the mutability, adaptability, modifiability, and virtual capabilities of our own flesh.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Considering a variety of female superhero narratives, including World War II-era Wonder Woman comics, the 1970s television programs The Secrets of Isis and The Bionic Woman, and the more recent Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Education and the Female Superhero: Slayers, Cyborgs, Sorority Sisters, and Schoolteachers argues that they share a vision of education as the path to female empowerment. In his analysis, Andrew L. Grunzke examines female superheroes who are literally teachers or students, exploring examples of female superheroes whose alter egos work as schoolteachers or attend school during the workday and fight evildoers when they are outside the classroom. Taking a broader view of education, Grunzke argues that the superheroine in popular media often sees and articulates her own role as being an educator. In these narratives, female superheroes often take it upon themselves to teach self-defense tactics, prevent victimization, and encourage people (especially female victims) to pursue formal education. Moreover, Grunzke shows how superheroines tend to see their relationship with their adversaries as rehabilitative and educative, trying to set them on the correct path rather than merely subdue or dominate them.

Book excerpt: Superhero Rhetoric from Exceptionalism to Globalization: Up, Up and ...Abroad examines superhero narratives through the lens of American rhetoric and globalization. Michael Arthur Soares illustrates how deeply intertwined superhero narratives are with American political culture by analyzing, on the one hand, the rhetoric of American exceptionalism and the representation of American presidents in superhero narratives and, on the other, the prevalence of superhero rhetoric in speeches by American politicians. Turning toward the global mobility of the superhero genre, Soares then offers further insight into the ways in which cultural contexts inform transformations of superheroes and their narratives around the world and how American filmmakers have adjusted their narratives to guarantee their global reach and ability to place films in the global marketplace. Finally, the author considers real-life examples of licensed superhero iconography embodied by individuals around the world who seek to make change in their communities. Ultimately, the chapters examine the journey of superhero rhetoric and how it reaches out to global audiences, across cultural borders and back again.

Book excerpt: A romantic and legal tragedy giving a new name to the phrase - good versus evil. Richard, known as Creator and leader of the Eternal Champions, finds himself in the middle of an evil plot to put him in prison with the murder trial of the century. His entire life is fixed on doing good and fighting for the helpless, but he becomes one of the helpless and has to completely put his trust in his friends and the legal system. It's a battle of wits verses public opinion, but what no one expects is Richard's resolve to outweigh the scales of justice, even though the people he fights for label him a murderer. To make things worse, Mentalists under the rule of Michael, the Arch Magi of the Magistrate, use their illusion powers to kill citizens in the streets terrorizing the country making law enforcement take drastic measures to stop the criminals with their own telepathic army. Jared once thought as a friendly superhuman secret agent working for the government is exposed as the mastermind behind Richard's plight and the Magistrate's only link to their criminal activities. But the mystery of Jared's past allows him to go into hiding and ruthlessly execute his ultimately destructive operation. Jean, Director of the Counter Espionage Agency, runs off with Jared in a leap of faith to see a better future. Richard and Elizabeth learn about the destructive plots to kill them or at the very least disband their superhero group, authorized by Jean and executed by Jared. The hunt is on as heroes and villains abrasively turnover every rock for Jared and Jean's heads on a platter. However, Jared's plan and desire for revenge against Michael and the Magistrate gives his family a new future and the beginning of salvation for everyone on the planet. The superheroes find their prey, but Richard and the Eternal Champions are forced to decide between justice and what is best for all, even if it means some criminals go free.
