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

Bram's Bizarre Adventure Chapter 2 by TehFluo

Bram and Duncan are travelling around the continent and meet many friends, and enough enemies to fill a (not-so-perfectly thought out) storyline through storytelling that definitely gets better as the story continues. Can contain Dutch words, mainly used to joke around. Don't worry if you can't read that, it's (probably) not super important to the story. Fictional story about me and my friendgroup I have been working on for the past two years. We call it 'the anime' and I write most of it in typical shounen-anime/manga form, often parodying typical tropes in anime. Can be quite graphic, reader discretion is definitely advised.

[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. --------------------------

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.

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 - ???

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.

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!)

Damsel[ed]: No Rescue Required by HeroBreaker

***FINISHED! AND FULLY UPLOADED*** "Your friend was right," the villain says, tilting her chin towards the moon. My mouth's on autopilot now as I mentally uncurl from the fetal position. "Uh, first, why do you know my friends? Second, about what?" Her eyes light up like jack-o'-lanterns. "You're adorable when you're scared out of your mind." ***Now a Wattpad featured story*** Having superpowers is awesome, unless you're Angelos Fibbs. When a kidnap attempt leaves him with incredible superpowers and a price on his head, this one-liner-loving dork must choose: hurt or be hurt. Supervillain or damsel in distress. He's a lover, not a telekinetic black-leather-wearing killer, and he wants to keep it that way. The fates of his best friends hang in the balance, and if he can't face his biggest fears, he'll become a pawn to a powerful underground whose dark intentions could destroy his city, and possibly, the world. Life just got messy for the clean-freak super. WARNING: Mild swearing, and a 'spit' load of dorky alternatives. Nerdy humor, cliffhangers, plot twists, fights, and a love triangle so complex it's more or less a love blob. May cause spontaneous shipping. Also includes enough Star Wars references to make George Lucas cringe. Read at your own risk. COMPLETE *** Highest ranking #1 in Adventure on July 8, 2016
