Book excerpt: The enduring cultural phenomenon of comic book heroes was invented in the late 1930s by a talented and hungry group of artists and writers barely out of their teens, flying by the seat of their pants to create something new, exciting, and above all profitable. The iconography and mythology they created flourishes to this day in comic books, video, movies, fine art, advertising, and practically all other media. Supermen! collects the best and the brightest of this first generation, including Jack Cole, Will Eisner, Bill Everett, Lou Fine, Fletcher Hanks, Jack Kirby, Jerry Siegel, Joe Shuster, and Basil Wolverton.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Skyscraper of a Man is a truly American story. Rooted in the homogenous suburbs of the 1970s, the novel explores the American propensity to pursue great ambitions, regardless of upbringing, that can result in lives that are larger than life. The four main characters live such lives, achieving great success in their chosen pursuits while dealing with the personal challenges and choices that come with success. The main character, Ben Matthews, the son of an avid Revolutionary War buff, believes deeply in America, its founding principles, and -by the people, for the people- government. Inspired by the grand ideals of the Founding Fathers, Ben starts a newspaper and runs for political office, efforts aimed at righting a nation he perceives as falling short of its potential and promise. His three closest friends, a writer who is also his business partner, a television news anchorwoman who was his lover, and a former college football star, play contributing roles in his rise to national prominence. In the end, Ben learns that grand ideals are elusive, difficult to maintain, and better left to the perfect among us. The San Francisco Book Review awarded Skyscraper of a Man 5 out of 5 stars and provided the following review: -Bowe pens a poignant tale... [He] fashions a fictional, yet realistic, setting with a well-defined cast that mimics American life... Unique to Bowe's plot is how he parallels the growth of the four [main characters] to the evolution of skyscrapers... A balanced combination of fact, fiction, engaging dialogue, and a flurry of twists and turns, Skyscraper of a Man is a stunning and inimitable debut with Silver Screen potential.-
