Book Description
High atop the Fortress of Liberty...The life of a super-hero is not all it's cracked up to be. Just ask Wyatt Ferral, one of the city's cape-wearing favorite sons. For one thing, he can't stand the other heroes, and is starting to see that they aren't especially heroic. Plus, he's forced to wear stupid looking spandex costumes, and his unauthorized biographies are filled with glaring inaccuracies. Heroing is so isolating. Some days, he just wants to walk away from it all and have a real life. All it would take is one personal tragedy to push him over the edge...Meanwhile at the Consortium of Chaos...The life of a super-villain is a blast, just ask the super-villainess known as "Harlot." Just because you're dedicated to evil doesn't mean you can't have a little fun, right? So, when the almost forgotten hero Wyatt Ferral walks into the Consortium's headquarters one day and says that he has a plan, she's intrigued. Can Wyatt help their troubled organization finally succeed in one of their world domination schemes? Can she keep her fellow villains from killing the handsome hero long enough to hear what he has to say? Will he see the subtle but important distinction between collecting his memorabilia and stalking him? Was his Hero swimsuit calendar photoshopped, or do his abs actually really look like that? So many important questions...

Dutko nevertheless made his way to a point within 30 yards of the first enemy machinegun and killed both gunners with a handgrenade. Although the second machinegun wounded him, knocking him to the ground, Pfc. Dutko regained his feet and advanced on th 88-mm gun, firing his Browning automatic from the hip. When he came within 10 yards of this weapon he killed its 5-man crew with 1 long burst of fire. Wheeling on the machinegun which had wounded him, Pfc. Dutko killed the gunner and his assistant.

Book Description
Masterful retelling of the Norse myths with vivid pictures of the heroes, including Thor with his hammer, Iduna with her apples, and Loki with his tricks and schemings. Inhabiting a harsh world where character is revealed in action, some draw admiration for their feats of superhuman strength, overcoming apparently insurmountable challenges, while others stoop to deceitful action with disastrous results. A study in contrasts, not without humor, giving the reader lots to ponder.
