DoberXman?
Matthew, an unemployed bum, barely making it by. Messing up old relationships and failing in life, being desperate for work he threw his applications everywhere. Somehow landing a position as the CEO's personal assistant. Not one previous applicant had even got accepted. Though, something is indefinitely odd about the woman. To his surprise, the CEO turned out to be someone he recognized, a Doberman girl from his old high school. Way back when, she was only a shy, nerdy overachieving, top student, with a hint of a teacher's pet. Now, she's the backbone of a renowned tech company. Back then he always harbored a crush on her, despite about everyone mocking him for liking her, them being "lab experiments" or some damn propaganda. Fear of rejection kept him silent. But now that timid girl he once knew is a cold, aloof, and brutally blunt woman. (First attempt at a story, the first few chapters suck in my opinion, please give criticism.)

Mod Superhero
For this cyborg, power is just an upgrade away. Emmett was used to being caught between college and his engineering internship, but when he gets caught between a powerful hero and an even stronger villain, he becomes collateral damage. Instead of dying, he wakes up a cyborg. Turns out his boss wasn't just an eccentric inventor, and the old man just gave him a shining opportunity to be a hero. Except that's just the beginning, and things are about to get a lot more complicated. His boss has his own agenda. The boss's daughter has her own power armor. His roommate works for an evil corporation. And Emmett is small fry. Just a Class 1 hero. Superheroes aren't just masks-some work for corporations, or for the government and the military, and even as mercenaries in wars. Shadowy cabals pull the strings of hero and villain alike. The city of Belport might be peaceful for now, but most of the world is in turmoil. If Emmett is going to have any chance at making a difference, he needs to get stronger. A lot stronger. How much of his humanity will he hold onto and how much will he trade away? If you're a fan of Cyborg, Winter Soldier, Iron Man, or Batman Beyond, then you don't want to miss this series!
