Next-Gen Superheroes — Chad Descoteaux

The final book in the WORKING-CLASS SUPERHEROES trilogy.

Fifteen years have passed since the death of Magma Man. The world has turned its back on the group of government-sanctioned superheroes who twice saved Earth from destruction. General Gordon and Speed Chicken have gone into exile. Others have traded superheroics for more normal lives. Wombat is now a house husband who bakes muffins and drives his adopted son to school every morning, supporting his wife Towanda's career.

When a planet-gobbling space slug named Slurptooth emerges to threaten the Earth, Gordon must reunite his superhero team once again. But what history does Gordon have with the Slurptooth? What role will a new team of younger, more powerful superheroes have in assisting the old(er)? And what about the daughter of Magma Man, who, until now, has been keeping her powers under wraps, afraid of being as powerful as her malevolent biological father?
