…naturally, he washed it down with beer
Ok, so I’m reading about science fiction book series on Wikipedia today and I’m checking out a series titled “Hero.com” (published in 2009) and I read this…
“Rise of the Heroes
Toby, Pete, Lorna, and Emily are just average kids—until they stumble upon a Web site called Hero.com and download powers that turn them into superheroes. At first, flying, teleporting, and shooting lasers from their eyes seems like nothing but fun. But when the supervillain Doc Tempest kidnaps Toby and Lorna’s mom, things take a darker turn.”
Doc Tempest? DOC TEMPEST? That would be the name I came up with for a Pulp Hero back in 1990 and whom was subsequently mention in RPG sessions at GenCon in 1991 & 1992, as well as being mentioned in A&E during the 90’s AND being all over both my old Blogger blog and this LJ (since 2004).
Now, it very well could be just a coincidence. However, apparently these books are gonna be turned into a TV movie on Cartoon Network. It would royally suck if, some day, I got a cease and desist from whoever the fuck owns Cartoon Network. I can’t afford a lawyer to help me win a pissing contest with some megacorp, to say nothing of the original author of the books.
So, what the hell should I do? It does seem that the evil villain “Doc Tempest” only appeared in the first book, but still…
