Barr’s Psychological Revenge: A Super
Incorporated Novel
Hello.
My name is Brian Barr and I’m an American author of novels, short stories, and
comic books.
Recently,
J. Ellington Ashton Press published my second book, Psychological Revenge: A Super Inc. Novel. This short pulp novel
revolves around two antagonists, Brain Surgeon and Principle Mind, who must be
stopped by Super Incorporated, a crime fighting team assembled and owned by the
government.
Super
Incorporated exist in a future, centuries down the line, where vigilantism has
been outlawed, and all crusaders must be licensed by the government. Crusaders
can only work for government-owned agencies. Super Incorporated is the most
renowned and respected crusader team in Capital City of Sector E3 (a
world-state that consists of the Americas, Europe, and parts of the Middle
East). Their team consists of five members: The Stoic, The Shekinah, Ghost
Lady, Horrid Hag, and The Gambler. Together, Super Inc. fights against supercriminals, criminals deemed too
troublesome or powerful for law enforcement and the military to handle. In
order to fight crime, Super Inc. must get
authorization from the government, and going beyond their jurisdiction would
result in heavy penalties and consequences.
In
this first novel, Super Inc. goes against Brain Surgeon, a psychotic
extraterrestrial who feeds on mental energy, and Principle Mind, a misanthropic
telekinetic and electrokinetic who hates humanity. An intense rivalry brews
between these villains, and Super Inc. must stop the both of them before their
feud destroys Capital City. Other villains get tangled in the rivaling
supercriminals’ affairs, from the violent crime syndicate known as The Saints
of Death, to the paranoid-schizophrenic cartoonist Mont E. Cartoon and the mad
robotist Master Gepetto.
Along
with being introduced to these characters in the Super Inc. universe,
Psychological Revenge also familiarizes readers with the world these characters
exist in. From the corporate regulations imposed by the government that Super
Incorporated has to followed, to the complexities of Capital City, an advanced
megacity that stretches from what was once Maine to the Floridian peninsula,
the novel portrays a world that has changed drastically from the one we know
now. The results of a failed one-world government, which has produced five
independently-ran but connected world-states, allows readers to understand
Super Inc.’s environment. It’s a complex environment, strange and far-removed
from nature with mass urbanization, class divide, and immense crime. It’s a
world where heroism and action is heavily limited, where crusaders can only do
the right thing if approved by the forces who rule them… or else.
