"Realms of Ascension: In the Court of the Minotaur King" by Steve Bruns
The weapon in your hand is sharp, but it is merely a replacement for the one that is your ancestral birthright: Ebon Stormstrike, snatched from your dead father’s hands even as the priests and wizards prepared his body for burial. You’ve tracked the thieves all over the sky kingdoms: from the castles of the Stratan Freehold…to the Cellestan City-states… scoured every Genoan port…even venturing to the wild lands below the cloud kingdoms. But now a new lead has turned up and by the gods, living and dead, you will have justice!

"Undercover Cool: Secrets of the Deep Cold" by Steve Bruns
Good afternoon, Mr. Smith, and congratulations on wrapping up the Budapest case. President Kennedy sends his thanks. Lights, please. The first slide you’re looking at is an aerial view of one of our research bases, called Spyglass, located in the arctic wilderness. Before the collapse of the Soviet Empire in ’57, its purpose was to monitor their satellites. But now it’s been given a new purpose: to track any unidentified orbital traffic, and believe me, there’s plenty of lunatics out there who would love to park a nuke in orbit over New York: the Fourth Reich, Black Lotus, the Hammer & Sickle…next slide, please. Spyglass is run by this man, Dr. Benton Quest, and Dr. Quest has gone missing…

Tensions between police and costumed heroes are mounting; rumors of banning vigilantes soon. Nevertheless, evil must be punished. I believe I shall take my exercise.
