The fight for truth, justice, and the American way is rife with collateral damage. What happens when a husband and father rises from the ashes of that damage? Is he a villain? A hero? Or just a man looking for revenge?
Captain Awesome is a true American hero, and loved by nearly everyone in the city. But when he is called upon to stop a dangerous bank robbery things get out of control. Martin Mitchell watches his wife and son die as a result of Captain Awesome's recklessness in apprehending the robbers. Now, Martin's hate for Captain Awesome grows inside of him and the only thing on his mind is making Captain Awesome pay for their death.

He lived by a strict code. Sure, he was new. Sure, maybe he did some questionable things. Sure, he probably bled way too much to be considered normal. But, he always got the job done. He always got away. He did what he had to, and he did it happily, being invisible the while. Being... A Ghost. (I do not own DC or any of the characters associated with them.

WHITE WOLF AND BLACK FOX (ENGLISH VERSION)
With the battle against the Flag Smashers behind them, Sam Wilson and Bucky Barnes team up with the FBI to hunt down a lethal new threat: a serial killer known only as Black Mamba. As the investigation unfolds, they cross paths with Grace Collins, a brilliant forensic scientist whose sharp tactical mind makes her an invaluable asset to the team. Her wit and enigmatic presence quickly catch Bucky's eye, reawakening emotions he hasn't felt in a very long time. Don't expect a simple romance, though. Packed with twists, dark secrets, and high-stakes investigations, the pressure builds with every step. (And since this is a Marvel story: yes, expect an unlimited-budget lineup of cameos and a classic post-credits scene).Complete

On the verge of bankruptcy, and with very few residents that continue to stay in the city, Gotham seems to be at a low point. Emerging from the shadows is a vigilante, one dressed like a bat. The self-proclaimed "Batman" fights criminals and anything illegal dressed in a carbon fiber, Kevlar suit. Now equipped with a trusty sidekick Robin, Batman seems to be becoming famous. Batman and Robin seem to be a symbol of hope for some, but just costumed freaks for others. Months after the first appearance of Batman, Shadow of the Bat details Batman and Robin's first real supervillain encounter ... and how they created him. A new crime boss arrives in Gotham, calling himself The Joker. A ruthless murderer, The Joker dons a purple suit and clown makeup. Gotham is now higher in crime and drug consumption than before the time of Batman. As The Joker recruits more people to join his side in a proclaimed "War on Gotham", Batman and Robin must fight through the criminal ranks, and use all the skills in their bodies to save Gotham for the first time . . . and definitely not the last.Complete

Villain Complex [WATTYS WINNER 2022] [NOW PUBLISHED]
PREVIEW ONLY | WATTYS WINNER 2022 | If killing a superhero were easy, everyone would do it. But for Julian Godfrey, defeating Storm Warning was far from the hardest part. What began as victory over the city's biggest hero quickly unravels into a mess, once he learns that the mysterious source of Storm Warning's power has found a new host. Charlotte Hathaway has no idea how to use her new abilities, but she won't stop trying until she destroys Julian's alter ego, Citadel. Julian should have taken her new powers from her when he had the chance, but he let her go in favor of a new plan: training her for a real fight. It's the only way to prove he didn't get lucky when he killed Storm Warning, and show the city--and the other villains--that he's a force to be reckoned with. Getting close to Charlotte comes with far more than Julian bargained for. She's the perfect hero. Determined, confident, and selfless above all else. She's even nice to him, of all people. But if Julian doesn't follow through with his plan despite his growing feelings for her, he has another force to reckon with: Blazar, the villain who raised him and taught him to use his powers. It seems that no matter what choice Julian makes, he's going to lose. And it's not just his life in danger. With its biggest hero gone, the fate of the city of New Atlas hangs in the balance. *ANTIHEROES GALORE Badass Author Feature*
