Heroes, Heroines, & Denizens of the Underworld

This is a unique story of the superhero genre, as it attempts to create an origin of superheros and their superhuman powers. It also gives a rare look into the, often depressing and neurotic, lives of superheroes. This is the story of Wallace Duffy, a simpleton, an introvert, and a wimp. Wally is certainly not the kind of person the neighbors would suspect is a superhero. Wally's teen years are something he would prefer to forget. He was the target of ridicule ever since his late grandfather told Wally's friends that he and Wally were superheroes by ancestry. His adult years did not seem to be much of an improvement. They were filled with heartbreak due to his inability to express himself romantically to Chloe Spade, the love of his life. That was now about to change, ever since he discovered that his grandfather was not just a senile old man. Everything the old codger said was true.
