superhero superhuman young-adult youngadult

In his twenty-nine years, Matthew Moxon had done virtually nothing with his record-breaking IQ and unparalleled problem solving abilities. Until one morning, after a dangerous fall lands him in the emergency room, he discovers that a tumor is pressing against his brain. 

Unable to afford experimental but potentially life-saving surgery, Moxon takes drastic action; he volunteers for Arena Mode: 2041's most vicious sporting event, where thirteen superhumans fight in an urban combat zone for a multi-billion dollar prize. 

Moxon is forced to battle opponents possessing ungodly speed, strength, and abilities once thought to exist only across the pages of superhero comics – and he’s armed with nothing more than his rapidly-diminishing brain cells. 

With the odds stacked impossibly against him, Moxon fights to not only survive the wrath of the other competitors, but to unlock the mysteries buried within the Arena itself.Todos os Direitos Reservados

Super Blogger, de UC-creates

Love, Crime, Action! When the world's richest blogger is secretly the world's only superhero... you'd think he couldn't have it any better. But throw an alien race of conquerors into the picture, and the 24-year-old Jason Leo McLean is on a mission to save Earth from a fullblown invasion while at the same time sorting out his love life. *** For the longest time, Jason thought he was in love with his highschool crush, Gina Orwell. Even through college, he couldn't seem to get her out of his head. That is until his path links with June Austere, a famous popstar, at a special event. Their brief shared moments make him feel like they're a match made in heaven. A feeling he doesn't have time to process as he constantly battles criminals in his alien tech armor. However, a warrior from the stars arrives on Earth with sinister plans, forcing Jason to switch into the next gear or risk losing everything he holds dear--including Gina, who pops back into his life, all grown and sassy. And then there's Alain Archer, king of New Chronos City's underground, as dangerous as he is elusive. Hence, it's a full plate; two threats and two love interests. So as the galactic warrior hunts him down, the press gets alarmingly curious about his wealth, and his friends become increasingly suspicious, Jason must wear many masks while trying to save the world and get the girl--whoever she may be. As the saying goes; 'You win some, you lose some'. But sometimes you can either win it all or lose it all. ------------------------------------------------ 🏆1st Place winner in the sci-fi category of the 2023 Datura Awards. #FEATURED by @ScienceFiction #FEATURED by @AmbassadorsNG ▪︎▪︎▪︎ *Cover by the awesome @still_just_me ▪︎▪︎▪︎

Mild Mannered, de WillCohenAuthor

“The beginning of the beginning. The genesis of great things. An origin story.” Paul Pritchard just graduated from college, master's degree in his hand, and ready to start his new life. The problem is...he's already struggling to find a job. With the prospects of living in a basement apartment, eating ramen for every meal, Paul finds the real world a bit intimidating. That is, until a strange man named Nathan David approaches him with a job opportunity with his company: the Wyndham-Hart Group, an organization that has spent decades shielding the world at large of the existence of “persons with powers” – the politically correct term for superheroes. While a handful of Wyndham-Hart operatives are out in the open with their own comic books and cartoon series, like the legendary gun-toting badass Stronghold, the majority of persons with powers walk among us, under the watchful eye of the company – and the conglomerate simply known as The Agency. Under the direct supervision of the beautiful (and sardonic) Quinn Feldman, Paul is thrust into “on-the-job training” as Stronghold's personal liaison. While assisting him in this case, all arrows quickly point to Chapter Zero: a mysterious and dangerous chemical compound that draws the attention of both Wyndham-Hart operatives and the shady characters they're trying to stop. Unfortunately, one such character is Thaddeus Bell, a rogue Wyndham-Hart operative who reappears after living nearly thirty years off the grid, and is now, as it seems, out for blood. With the pressure surmounting, Paul, Stronghold, and the rest of Wyndham-Hart are on a race against time before Chapter Zero is unearthed and falls into the wrong hands...and before someone realizes Paul may be under-qualified for the job.

Hero Types, de GreenPastels

Kit Folly was just another teenage girl... ...and she still is. To be perfectly clear, she still deals with the ups and downs of her failing grades, less-than-supersonic social life, dumb teenage boys, and the nearing void of life after high school. She just happens to be juggling her superhero side-gig at the same time. A mission like any other fails to go as planned, and Kit and her team find themselves confronted with a mysterious new villain with a new dangerous power that threatens all of superhero-kind. In the wake of an unexpected loss, they have to compensate with a new arrival to the crew--one whom Kit would have preferred to never see again. To top it all off, there's family health problems, daddy issues, bullying, a lot of homework, and a burgeoning romance with an old enemy. Well--if you want to call it that. Warning: Sex, Drugs, and Rock'n'Roll (Also: strong language)

My Deceiving Eyes, de tinaheartz

In 2239, added as an ingredient for rat poison, a disease began to spread rapidly through the air. Decaying the bones it attaches to, inflicting paralysis and organ failure while its victims remain conscious enough to feel the pain that follow.

These two illnesses quickly combined, causing a huge outbreak across the world and Wiping out almost 64% of the human's population. They called this contagious and infectious disease, "the Bliss." Eleven years later, after hundreds of failed trials, the Serpent department has created a solution: children who are immune to the disease. Raised within the boundless white laboratory walls, Adrian Bordeleau is cruelly exploited to develop a cure. As he grow up, a voice began to eat away at his soul. Gradually making him question what is keeping him from breaking out of the facility and destroy everything and everyone who dared to deceive him. Once you get a taste of power, you can't go back - My Deceiving Eyes is heavily inspired by the song Brutus by Buttress. As well as the Flare from Maze Runner, Deep Root disease from Gemini Home Entertainment, and the Grimace shake incident. [SECOND DRAFT]
