WELCOME TO THE SECOND GOLDEN AGE OF SUPERHEROES AND HEROINES Superheroes have come a long way since the Man of Steel was introduced in 1938. This brilliant new collection features original stories and novellas from some of todays most exciting voices in comics, science fiction, and fantasy. Each marvelously inventive tale shows us just how far our classic crusaders have evolvedand how the greatest of heroes are, much like ourselves, all too human. In Call Her Savage, MARJORIE M. LIU enters the dark heart of a fierce mythic heroine who is forced, by war, to live up to her own terrible legend. In A to Z in the Ultimate Big Company Superhero Universe (Villains Too), BILL WILLINGHAM presents a fully-realized vision of a universe where epic feats and tragic flaws have transformed the human race. In Vacuum Lad, STEPHEN BAXTER unveils the secret origins of the first true child of the space ageand disproves the theory that nothing exists in a vacuum. In Head Cases, PETER DAVID and KATHLEEN DAVID blast through the blogosphere to expose the secret longings of a Lonely Superhero Wife. In The Non-Event, MIKE CAREY removes the gag order on a super-thief named Lockjaw . . . and pries out a confession of life-altering events. Also includes stories by Mike Baron Mark Chadbourn Paul Cornell Daryl Gregory Joseph Mallozzi James Maxey Ian McDonald Chris Roberson Gail Simone Matthew Sturges . . . and an introduction by Lou Anders, one of the brightest and best of the new generation of science fiction editors (Jonathan Strahan, The Best Science Fiction and Fantasy of the Year).

@OrangeMooseReads Here‘s one of the masks I made today. Shoe laces make good ties, and they‘re more available than elastic.

OrangeMooseReads Hadn‘t thought of using shoelaces! 5y
Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks So cool!! I bought some black ponytail holders for ours at Dollar General ☺️ 5y
Lcsmcat @Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks And those don‘t hurt your ears? What do you use to shape the nose? I‘ve been using pipe cleaners. 5y

Megabooks Looks great!! 5y
Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks @Lcsmcat I didn‘t make them, I bought them for a lady who is making them. I‘m not sure about the nose piece, but that sounds like a good idea. I don‘t like ties because of my hair... my ears have been ok, but I only go to work. I very rarely leave home... (edited) 5y
Lcsmcat @Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks I need the nose to be tight to my face or my glasses fog up. I don‘t leave home much now, but once they reopen town hall to the public I‘ll be required to wear a mask at work, so I‘m stocking up. 5y
Lcsmcat @Megabooks Thanks. 5y
Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks @Lcsmcat I have glasses too! The struggle is real!! 5y

Real crackerjack PPE we have here. This is the daily mask we get issued. Today I no sooner put it in than the plastic piece popped out and poked me right in the eye. Luckily we still have the good masks up here and although we‘re using them for about 3 days, they have metal to bend for your nose and it‘s in much better. I guess something is better than nothing but I‘m glad I can still change into a better mask in department!

Crazeedi Grrrr!! 5y
CocoReads Yep. Annoying and it should have been my first clue that today was going to suck. 5y

And just because, a selfie I texted to my mom showing her I was loaded up with alcohol swabs and wipes to wipe down med rooms. Technically they only say to wipe them on your first run but I‘m paranoid, so if I‘m touching it, I‘m wiping it.

Andrew65 Good strategy! 5y
Kimzey Thanks for doing essential work! ❤️😷 Stay safe! 5y

I've had this book for 7 years and have still not read it. It's a superhero anthology with short stories by several authors I love. I need to move this up my TBR. #masked #aprilbookshowers

RealLifeReading Great list of authors! 8y
readinginthedark I was supposed to get a free copy of this, but it never came! 😭 8y
