Joel Wyatt is a lowly call center representative who works for the &quot;big, evil empire&quot;. No, really... the maniacal CEO of Vaig Communications has battled against some of the greatest costumed crusaders the world has ever known. Not that that has anything to do with Joel; he's just trying to keep the peace with his girlfriend, Gwen, make time for bowling with his buddy, Spliff, and afford the ever-rising rent prices in Denver, Colorado. 

But strange things are afoot in the 303 area code, and suddenly, Joel is finding himself face to face with the sort of heroes, villains, and giant, radioactive monsters that he used to only read about on his news feed. 

If he's not careful, Joel might just move from being a spectator to an active participant in a series of events that could change the course of history itself... and maybe even his own life.All Rights Reserved

Insert One Liner Here (Book 2) by scaryberry123

[COMPLETED] ••Reached #1 in adventure on 04/07/2019•• ••Reached #2 in hero on 05/16/2019•• ••Reached #3 in fiction on 05/20/2019•• Arlo Sanders wakes up one morning to discover that he wet the bed. I know what you're thinking and no, he didn't pee himself. He had developed super powers. At first, he was in denial, but inevitably came to the understanding that he is now a Super, and if he has powers, he might as well use them for something other than picking up hot chicks. Now, not only does he have to deal with school, his almost non existent social life and his aggravating younger brother, but he also has to fight super villains and learn to control his new found powers to avoid blowing his cover to the world...and it is a lot harder than he anticipated. Prepare for a roller coaster ride of lame one liners and painfully awkward adolescent behaviour, along with bromances and romances, breakups and make ups, and even some cliché superhero behaviour, villains who hold a grudge, and really dorky super suits. Oh... and angry, rampaging squirrels.

Teen Idols And Happy Meals by CaitlynTheresa

In a small New England town there lives a girl. A quirky, spirited McDonald’s cashier named Nikki Davenport. As a charismatic drama freak, she should’ve lived a happy, carefree life – just like any other teenager. But, plagued by money problems, Nikki’s been forced to enter a dark, sinister world in her attempts to support her family. The last thing she wants is more excitement. In that same town though, there is a boy. A beautiful, awful boy who lives and dies for excitement. As an A-list celebrity, seventeen year old Jacen Sage finds just about everything hopelessly boring. Things that he once found fun, have now lost their appeal. The only thing that interests him anymore is starting trouble. If he’s doing what he’s supposed to, he’s not doing what he wants. Terribly reckless, Jacen only feels alive when he’s about to die. No matter their identical zip codes, the two live in totally different worlds, and probably would’ve never met if not for Jacen’s infatuation with chicken nuggets. As soon as he walks into McDonalds that first day, Nikki knows there’s more to this boy than designer clothes and a pretty face. She’s drawn to him, but she denies it, no matter how many times he orders a happy meal from her. After all, the last thing she has time for is an obsession. But how can you deny fate when it won’t leave you the hell alone? After the teen idol sacrifices himself to save her, Nikki realizes there’s much more to Jacen than meets the eye. Quickly, the two are snatched up in a passionate, whirlwind romance. But Jacen’s dark, terrible past and Nikki’s ugly business aren’t the only things standing in the lovers' way. People have been disappearing left and right all over town, and the only connection between the missing girls is Jacen himself. Does the young star have a darker side than even Nikki realizes, or are the strange gifts he's been receiving a sign that he's just another victim?

How To Ruin A City by darkestnightskies

Who said heroes and villains couldn't offer each other mutual benefits? In a region run by supers, Nic is a crooked superhero only in it for the money while Catalina wants to do whatever it takes to label herself as a villain. Their conflict was inevitable, but dirty minds think alike. The duo form an alliance in order to con the biggest hero organization in the city, The Vigilante Assistance Hotline, hoping to make some extra cash on the side while never having to do any real work. But TVAH isn't what it seems. With corruption already running rampant throughout the company, Nic and Catalina are forced to step up to play hero in order to save their city from a group hellbent on hunting down supers just like them. -- "I get paid every time I fight a villain, even if I don't apprehend you." "So...If I got away and we fought again, you'd get paid even more than you would tonight, right?" His eyes lit up as he understood my train of though. With a smirk, he said, "I like the way you think." -- (TAKE NOTE THAT THIS BOOK TAKES PLACE A LITTLE OVER TWO YEARS AFTER THE BEST INTENTIONS BUT IT IS NOT THE SEQUEL TO IT.) -- #1 in supervillain on May 15th, 2021 #1 in cryokinesis on September 1st, 2019 #1 in pyrokinesis on May 29th, 2021

Good Enough by Icy182

A group of friends with no parents or family just living together in a world where everyone has superpowers. Although they do try to be heroes, there are no rules with using their powers so they use their abilities how they see fit, which is good enough.

Just For One Day by SwordInTheInkwell

In a world where superheroes patrol the streets and supervillains run rampant, Nova city is the place to be for metahumans. Two of them, the heroic Meteor and his world-weary sidekick Quickdraw, do everything they can to protect Nova City from villains, thieves, thugs, and a bustling black market for office supplies; all the while trying to break into the superhero big leagues. When a gang of powerful supervillains start gunning for them, Quickdraw suddenly finds himself up to his neck in trouble, including catching the interest of the electrically charged Teravolt. On top of everything else, a flamboyantly dark figure from Meteor's past arises, and he will stop at nothing to have his revenge. (Cover art by the very talented DragonGirl_97!)

This Can't Be Real (A Superhero Story) by syddieb_cant_read

Book 1 of 3 in the Barron Series This book was re-edited roughly 4 times, each time in an effort to make the book less 'cringe'. The story is based on a game we used to play in my elementary school we named 'The Power of Cheese' between me and over 12 kids that we played every day at recess for (at least) 3 consecutive years. It was a roleplaying game where everyone had superpowers and controllable dimensions. In this new story, the characters are renamed (confidentiality) but the powers are the exact same. The plot was changed, but I kept it as close to the original without it sounding like it came from the minds of a gaggle of 10-year-olds. Characters were cut, the dialogue was refurbished, the jokes are more modern but still not as funny, and will probably be rewritten again. Either way, I hope you enjoy reading it as much as I did writing it. 1st Write - May 2017 1st Revision - January 2019 1st Rewrite - March 2020 2nd Revision - September 2021 2nd (MAJOR) Rewrite - January 2022-February 2023 3rd Revision - ???

Infiniteum | ✓ by Rinkou

[Formerly Featured!] Coming back from a vacation, with a gun pointed at her head was definitely not what Jean Saunders expected. Especially seeing a man flying around in the air, claiming to be the city's superhero. At least he wasn't wearing that embarrassing spandex outfit. Alas, due to her capability for getting into trouble, the city's superhero eventually recognises her and not in a good way, at all. Catching a superhero's attention is never a good thing. -------------------------- Opening and closing his mouth, he made some gestures as if he was trying to speak but he couldn't find the words to convey his message. "...what are you?" He finally managed to speak and I blinked my eyes at him. The heck? Does he think I am some sort of...alien? It's not like I'm some kind of weird species! What the heck does he think I am? "I'm human!" I said, narrowing my eyes at him. --------------------------

Eluding Memory by Melanomaniac_17

I'm a normal person, with an average job and a decent circle of friends. I try to blend into the everyday mundane routine, which includes working, trying to adult, and (who could forget?) the daily embarrassing memory parade organised by my brain. I might be a normal person but I think you'll find my story interesting: I have a superpower! Well, it may not be much of a superpower because I think we all can have it; I just found out how to harness it. Read my story to find out how I found out my powers and learnt how to use them! Fiction with elements of Fantasy, Mystery/Thriller, and Comedy! Began writing in August for the #JustWriteIt 8-Chapter Challenge
