Season 1

Book 1: Supervillain of the Day

The supervillain outbreak has begun. Reports are trickling in from all over the world of havoc and mayhem being wreaked by evil masterminds and villains. In the midst of this world-wide phenomena, however, London is strangely calm and peaceful. Not a single supervillain has made an appearance. For most Londoners this is very good news, but for the editor of a tabloid paper specializing in the strange and unusual it’s very bad news indeed.

Reporter Jeffry Floyd is assigned the task of finding a supervillain “or else.” He appeals to Scotland Yard for help, but his incessant poking at shadows gets him banned from the case, until one sergeant realizes that both Floyd and his “investigation” are more than they seem…

Book 2: Fire and Ashes

The world has been overrun by supervillains and the only thing that stands between humanity and destruction is an alien reporter-turned-supervillain hunter–Jeffry Lewis Floyd. The last thing in the galaxy Floyd wants is to be a hero, but even the villains seem intent on making him into one.

A human torch boasts that he will cause the Second Great Fire of London. Every day he turns more of the city into smouldering ruins, and nothing can be done to stop him. Will a hero be found in time, or will London be consumed by fire and Ashes?

Book 3: Inspector Floyd

A string of murders leads Inspector McCormick of Scotland Yard to believe that a serial killer is loose in London. Only a few facts remain to be cleared up; such as how the murderer is getting to his victims, and how to catch him. But when their lead suspect turns out to be the harmless-but-eccentric reporter, Jeffry Floyd, an unlikely alliance is formed. Floyd reveals that the supervillains are also being picked off one at a time, and he intends to find out who is responsible. But matters are complicated when Sergeant Adams’ sister comes to town.

Kate Adams is nothing at all like her brother, and manages to get thoroughly mixed up in the double murder investigation, the supervillain underworld, and–unexpectedly–the life of Jeffry Floyd.

Floyd vows to get them back, but Adams declines his assistance.
