Infinitum: Origin
Not all heroes are heroes because they want to be...sometimes, they’re heroes because they’re chosen to be.
Ed Helquist never asked for superhuman strength, or extraordinary speed, or the voice in his blood that tells him when and where trouble will occur; those things just arose in him one day, calling him into danger and forcing him to help people without knowing why. His best friend Casey has a ridiculous theory: somehow Ed is becoming a superhero, an idea that Ed just can’t allow himself to believe. When Lane Daniels appears and reminds Ed of an extraordinary incident from their childhood that supports the possibility, Ed has no choice but to allow that his powers have been with him for longer than he’s realized—and now, they seem to be evolving. His simple life is becoming more and more complicated every minute, and a mysterious woman who keeps showing up to cause trouble may hold the answers to everything...if only she she’d stop trying to kill him long enough for him to ask.
Infinitum One: Origin is an exciting new work from Steven Luna, a story that rewrites the book on superheroes, from the wild imagination that reinvented the vampire novel!

atypical superhero beginnings tale, especially since it's more than one superhero. more like a marvel universe in a fun house with all those crazy mirrors that distort. but also cute and touching at times, which gives the story charm. can't wait for the next installment!

An engaging and entertaining take on the superhero genre. I found the characters to be well-formed and well-written, the dialogue was natural and believable, and the action flowed smoothly from beginning to end.
