the unheroes
co-created with Matt Bors

THEY SAY A LOT OF THINGS ABOUT BEING GOD.

ALL EXCEPT WHAT HAPPENS AFTERWARDS.

THE UNHEROES is the story of Simon Weiss, formerly known as the Seraph, and the "Power and Loss" support group he attends Tuesdays from 8-10 PM. There, he copes with "god-withdrawal" and blackouts amid a group of ex-heroes and power addicts while searching for a way to become the Seraph once more. But when the bodies of ex-superheroes begin to litter the streets, Simon worries that his blackouts are happening for a reason ­ and perhaps the Seraph is possessing him while he sleeps. He enlists the help of his support group to figure things out and help stop the Seraph... before the Seraph stops him.

An ongoing street-level action book that focuses on the psyches of ex-heroes, THE UNHEROES offers a unique look at what it's like to have had it all ­ and then to have lost it. It also opens doors - literally, in the form of the community center ­ to a diversity of "super-neuroses" without resorting to "superhero goes to a shrink" tactics.

Do gods dream? Some faiths claim the mortal soul returns to god's presence each night, gaining wisdom at the feet of its creator. But what of those who once were gods- what do their dreams tell them? Do they speak of power, loss, emptiness and hope? Or do they fear the power ­ hoping beyond hope that they never have to hunt down another supervillain, fight another serial killer or face another day of loneliness and emptiness?

Or maybe they just want to talk to someone who can relate.

Feel free to join them. Front Street Community Center, Room 613. Tuesdays from 8-10 PM.
