Plenty of plot twists and and a few interesting supernatural mysteries. The book offers four urban fantasy adventures that make good introductions for new readers and extra bonus material for longtime fans.

Comic Review: Disconnected: Tales of the Sovereign #1 and #2 by Jason Thorson
Action-packed and hilarious! Follow the adventures of "The Sovereign" - the Joe Sixpack of superheroes - as he tries to find his way out of retirement and back to battling villains, assuming he can avoid the long arm of the law, or at least what passes as such in Disconnected's twisted version of "Mayberry".
