Mostly powerless. Completely clueless.

Once, they stood next to justice. Now they're standing up for it....

When sworn protectors of Earth, the Justice Platoon, are all horribly killed, their former arch-enemies come crawling out of the woodwork. Outnumbered, outgunned, and out of options, the US Government has no choice but to activate the Sidekicks Initiative, dragging the Platoon's middle-aged ex-sidekicks out of retirement.

Now these three reluctant, out of shape former child-wonders must work together to stop the rising tide of supervillainy, avenge their former mentors' deaths, and bring the world back from the brink of destruction.

Assuming they don't kill each other first.

Featuring anaphylactic shockwaves, unexpected hippos, and an aggressive man shouting at butterflies!

Performed by Bradley Foster Smith, Christopher Walker, Tracy Lynn Olivera, David M.

The three way comedic interaction between the main characters had me rolling.
I came hear to buy Book 2, sadly Barry hasn't finished it yet.

Butterfly King Rules!

I think, because I listened to Phil Tron first when the book came out it set my mind to that narration.
couldn't finish it and switched back to Phil's narration

back 2 Phil

Got the book because the premise interested me. Immediately the characters are dislikable, the story incoherent, and while the VC's are trying their hardest, no amount of acting can save a bad story.

Could have been interesting...
