Has anyone been reading this series? What a fun book. I picked up the first three issues at the recommendation of John Ordover, who told me it reads like something I’d’ve written. Considering one of the characters has a superhero identity called “Archetype,” which was a short story of mine that appeared in F&SF several years ago, I’d agree. But that aside, it’s a fun concept: It’s about a nuclear family where the father is a costumed superhero…and the family doesn’t know…and the mother is a vampire hunter…and the family doesn’t know…and the eldest daughter spends time in another dimension as a sword and sorcery princess…and the family doesn’t know…and the youngest son is overseeing an alien invasion of the earth…and the family doesn’t know. And as of issue #3, the storylines start to intersect.
It’s a CrossGen title under the Code 6 imprint.
