Mighty Mighty
What if some people really had superpowers? How different would the world be?
Not much.
In the world we live in, plenty of people virtually burst with skills,
talents or abilities. And they work retail, watch the clock on a
government job or run errands for less talented but more ambitious bosses.
But in the world of Mighty Mighty, these workaday heroes don't have that
luxury. If they don't rise above their lot, it could spell doom for all
sentient life on earth.
Be ready for some sharp left turns as you page through Mighty Mighty. It
starts as parody, becomes a satire, an adventure, a thriller, a mystery
and even a romance. But however the story moves along at any point, you'll
find yourself caring about and rooting for Our Heroes.
In Part One, we meet the guardians of St. Louis's Chesterfield Mall:
Orville Ortley, Mucus-Man, whose snot has the explosive power of a
howitzer shell; Kevin Kiley, Count Karma, invincible hero of the ethereal
plane who’s utterly useless on earth; and Mindy Maguire, a staunch
feminist who was blessed by all the goddesses with ultimate beauty and
absolutely bristles with the media-bestowed moniker Supermodel. They and
their teammates discover that there is a trinket somewhere in the property
they protect that is of value to the Washington-based villains of the
American Malevolence Institute. They don't know what it is or what it
does, but if the Institute got its hands on it, the results would be
ruinous.
