Chapter 3 of Hero Worship is a go, with the setting established the plot starts picking up. You can skip to Chapter 3 in the document just by clicking on it in the contents. https://docs.google.com/document/d/e/2PACX-1vQPYZuKwnCJjObNzgVN_dRpz8ERn2ARIKwhrF64R0M1LLVy5FCXMu3fXrF4HDe7CGdLaOHgsuhfux0B/pub I should acknowledge some advice from my brother on this to make things more obvious because as much as some…
Hero Worship Chapter 2 is now up. This is more of a behind the scenes chapter of how the Supers in this setting are wrapped up in promotional and merchandising empires, but I'm proud of how funny a couple of scenes in particular turned out. A large part of my reasoning for some of this…
A satirical deconstruction of superhero stories, but unlike most I have seen this tries to look at the problems of what if people of such immense power had more common failings, and how that could easily lead to disaster.
A point Douglas Murray commonly makes is that our society suffers from a shortage of real Nazis; because the radical left desperately wants to fight such a force of pure evil that would justify any action taken against it, but they so rarely can find any.

Several weeks ago I graduated from infantry school and at it a Sergeant (actually a Sergeant First Class or SFC) Black mentioned an ancient quote: "Of ever hundred men ten shouldn't even be there, eighty are just targets, nine are doughty fighters and we're lucky to have them for they make the battle, but one is the warrior…
There's a bunch of moronic drivel about the Harley-Joker relationship thanks to the release of Suicide Squad and its beyond ridiculous, especially considering she's possibly the most popular comics character to come out of the 90's (the only rival is Deadpool). Her merchandise usually outsells even many of the characters considered iconic to the genre.…
