    Channel Void is just a weird old TV show... That's what Paul thought at least until the night it invaded his mind with a vivid dream that sent him searching for the truth. After diving down a deep rabbit hole of strange theories on the black and white sci-fi anthology series, he finds himself believing more than ever that the episodes are based on more than creator Ron Shea's vivid, overactive imagination. With his skeptical boyfriend by his side, Paul embarks on a quest across America to prove the hundred and seventy-two episodes of Channel Void are real, but he soon discovers there may be more to his assumption than he thought. As things get weirder, it becomes clear the fabric of reality may need some mending, and Paul can't figure out how Ron Shea's untold private life factors into everything. Matters only get worse when the energy's opposition manifests in the form of the mysterious Men in White who want to stop the truth from getting discovered. Paul has no choice but to rely on new friends and strangers to help him sort through what's real and what's come from trash-talking skeptics and conspiracy theorists. Do all the pieces falling from the multiverse fit together, or had the whole thing been imagined from the start?

    When the world wants you to have nothing, take everything. Dr. Everything is a supervillain who wants nothing short of that. He has the brains and the power to take it, but there is one annoying superhero standing in his way: The Courageous Cricket-Man. The irritating insect has been a thorn in Dr. Everything's side for years, but the villain is not alone in his annoyance. He knows he can't take the world on his own, so he'll have to rely on a few fellow supervillains to aid him in his endeavor to rid Pristine City of its cricket infestation problem.Osprey's a brilliant inventor who can soar through the sky thanks to his own set of metallic wings and flight pack. He's had a contentious past with Dr. Everything, but are they willing to put all that happened between them aside to destroy their common enemy? Bad Juju and the Glamourous Gargoyle are former tag team partners turned supervillains, and Dr. Everything needs them as well. Bad Juju is a master illusionist who can turn reality on its head with a few muttered magic words, and Glam Gargoyle can wield enough Hellfire to turn her victims to ashes. Rounding out the team is Kilowatt, a surly miscreant and bank robber with electricity in his veins. Despite their differences, these five villains are destined to become THE UNFORTUNATE FIVE! Cricket-Man isn't going to know what hit him, but defeating the black-suited bug may be the least of the Unfortunate Five's problems. They'll still have to deal with breaking out of prison, infighting among Pristine City's other baddies, learning to work as a cohesive group, and all the other unknown variables that pop up in Dr. Everything's exhaustive calculations. But nothing worth having is ever given freely.

    When the media worships superheroes, the people will follow. So, what happens when someone decides to flip the script? Randy "Figs" Figueroa is a man on a mission. He wants the superhero community held to the same standards as the ones they've labeled as supervillains, making them accountable for their action and inactions. He's gotten a new job at VNN, a cable news network on the brink of circling the proverbial drain. When he changed the network's format to reflect a more villainous state of mind, he never expected it to erupt in such a spectacular manner. As Figs soon finds out, however, there's always a reaction to change, and none are bigger than the one coming from the superhero community as they lash out against him and VNN. A trenchant priest called Father Badass has his sights set on Figs, leading up a cast of do-gooders like the electrifying Silver Stunner, the Amazon turned dominatrix crime fighter Masked Mistress, and indestructible powerhouse Mr. Hardcore-just to name a few. Meanwhile, Figs has a wide array of anchors and producers dogging his every move. Robin Sacks-VNN's premiere anchor-has an agenda of his own, and he doesn't care who knows it. Mindy Greene sees the changes as troublesome, and she's vocal about how much she refuses to take in the name of change. Topping off the VNN hierarchy is Brett Vernon, son of billionaire mogul Jeb Vernon-head of the network. In Bad News, Daniel Aegan explores the world of televised news in a world full of superhumans, cosmic egos, and a translucent veil between hero and villain that paints a vivid interpretation of real life. Can Figs deal with the consequences of his network's actions while dealing with the inflated personalities he's forced to cultivate and create to keep the news fresh and entertaining, or will a culture where ratings equal disaster prove to be his and VNN's undoing?
