Edison City Index

Hello there! Welcome to the home of the Edison City stories, also known as all of my superhero stories set in a universe where a metropolis (not that one) exists around where Baltimore does in our world, and where superheroes live. All serials, once set up, will have their own index page.

To receive all stories in the Edison City universe, subscribe here, and make sure the Tales of Edison City tab is switched on. That’s all there is; have fun and enjoy reading!

Anthologies:

• The Lights of Edison City

  In Edison City, Captain Happily Married, Super Soccer Mom, their daughter Meg Atomic, and the rest of their heroic friends fight the never-ending battle against the forces of evil, which in this town include everything from the Owl Bandit taking over the subway line downtown to a romance with the Malevolent Med-Student to the Antichrist trying to rewrite history aboard the HMS Titanic. Anything and everything is a possibility here, including flying sharks. Especially the sharks.

Serials

• Gaseous Girl and the Winds of Time

  She's a flying brick with the power to control one of the fundamental states of matter, but no one takes her seriously. That's about to change. [19 episodes]

• Captain Happily Married: The Serial

  In this adventure not only does our hero face a challenge to his very life, but also, his marriage. Will Captain Happily Married and Super Soccer Mom's relationship survive the attack of Professor Irreconcilable Differences? Will the city? Maybe not, because this time, Professor Irreconcilable Differences has the one thing that might take them down: The Kaboominator. [9 episodes]

• Quarks of the Heart: A Meg Atomic Story

  In Quarks of the Heart, Meg Atomic must choose between her responsibilities to her cape, her family, and her city, and her growing feelings towards the Malevolent Med-Student, while he is forced to make a similar choice between her and his desire to be accredited by the Committee of Calamity. Hearts, not to mention femurs and the occasional small building, will almost certainly be broken. [13 episodes + epilogue]
