No Ordinary Mortals: A Heroic Anthology of Supers

Super-powered pulpy heroes automatically bring a WHAM-BAM! smile to readers’ faces. We all look forward to learning how they defeat villainy and wrongdoers. This is good side versus bad side, no amorality and no Byronic or anti- heroes. Think of characters like The Rocketeer, The Phantom, Zorro, and Flash Gordon—but super-powered. Blatantly heroic original-to-the-authors-only characters with no ambiguity in their pursuit of stopping offenders and reigning in villainous behavior. These are Supers with a unique power who fight crime and evil for the right reasons! Jaw-dropping original cover art by M.D. Jackson.Contents include:Christopher R.
