Publisher's summary
★★★★★ “Casino Royale with superheroes.”
An international supervillain summit. Androids, clones, and the Russian mob. And the martinis? Shaken, not stirred...
Spitball is finally one of the Phenomenal Five. But the Five aren’t exactly heroes anymore. They’ve followed Miracle Worker’s path and become underground saviors wanted by the law. But that doesn’t make bad guys now, does it?
Maybe it does...
Miracle Worker has been invited to a secret meeting of supervillains. An annual convention of spies, terrorists, and mad scientists. And he has a history with them.
Luke (a.k.a. Spitball) is riding shotgun, disguised as Miracle Worker’s young apprentice. His mission? Uncover the meaning behind the summit’s cryptic theme: God from the Machine. And determine where Miracle Worker’s true loyalties lie.
And, you know, get out alive. If he can.
Grab your supersuit and your armored tuxedo because perilous mystery, casino intrigue, and world domination await!
DXM combines the superpowered fun of the Marvel Cinematic Universe with James Bond action and adventure. The third installment of the IDCU is the best one yet!
The Identity Crisis Universe (IDCU) takes the comic books you grew up on, gamma-irradiates them, and sets them loose upon the world. Superhero fiction that packs a punch!
Complete Season One:
- Book 1: Hungry Gods
- Book 2: Secret Origins
- Book 3: Deus Ex Machina
- Book 4: Golden Age Heroes

★★★★★ “Outstanding rendition of superhero genres everywhere. Not your typical caped crusaders in these hero stories.” A sinister funhouse, apocalyptic cultists, and a mutant crime war. Suit up, hero. It’s going to be a busy day. It’s a lovely day for a summer carnival. The sun is out, the Twinkies are deep-fried, and romance is in the air. Luke Gillis (a.k.a. Spitball) finally musters the courage to ask his lab partner out on a date. But with a shape-shifting villain on the loose, his timing couldn’t be worse... Red Mantis is determined to shatter a kidnapping ring, but ...

★★★★★ "Brink may not be the next script writer for Deadpool but he is probably in line... And being a pain while they wait, too." The first superheroes didn’t wear capes. But they did literally save the world. In 2015, Liska Sadoski is an android powerhouse and the newest member of Spitball’s Phenomenal Five. In 1941, Liska Sadoski is a war orphan and teenaged freedom fighter in Nazi-held Europe. She is also a “talent” born with supernatural gifts and a knight of the Allies’ Camelot Division. Camelot’s new assignment: Parachute into enemy territory, track down their ...

Story
Emmett is used to being caught between college and his engineering internship, but when he gets caught between a powerful hero and an even stronger villain, he becomes collateral damage. Instead of dying, he wakes up a cyborg—a melding of flesh and machine. Turns out his boss wasn't just an eccentric inventor, and the old man just gave him a shining opportunity to be a hero.

Story
Luke Gillis is barely dragging himself through college. Of course, if he wrote term papers the way he thrashed bank robbers, he’d probably be a doctor by now. His mentor is the Miracle Worker. Yes, that Miracle Worker. Some say he’s more outlaw than hero, but beggars can’t be choosers. Still, Luke must be doing something right. The U.S. Army has invited his alter ego—the dashing speedster Spitball—on a top-secret mission. With the country’s premier superhero team missing-in-action, this could be his big break.

Story
When Yao Shen, Patriarch of the Heavenly Sky Sect, ascends and regains memories of his past life on Planet Earth, he realizes that he can no longer allow himself to accept the cruel and violent ways of Eliria, the realm of cultivation. So he decides to change it. It was time to found a new sect. One based on the values of honor and equality over senseless violence and discrimination. A sect where all, from the mortal farmer’s son to a sect elder's daughter, were held accountable to the same rules.

Story
In just seven days, the world will crumble. The System's Descent will usher in a new era of chaos: wild animals mutating, monstrous creatures emerging, and the cessation of modern technology. Humanity will be left defenseless. Drew Wright knows none of this. At least not until he is rudely ripped from his bed and thrust into a white room to undergo a taser-happy ‘Tutorial’. Turns out, he is one of a thousand randomly selected people to be forewarned of the approaching apocalypse. Now, he faces the delightful task of convincing his wife and mother of the devastation hurtling towards them.
