The Sidekicks

Will Shetterly's The Sidekicks is a brilliant subversion of superhero mythology, following a scrappy group of sidekicks who've had enough of living in the shadows of their famous mentors. It's sharp, witty, and refreshingly irreverent—think The Boys meets classic comic book nostalgia, with characters who'll make you rethink everything you thought you knew about heroes and villains. Perfect for comic book lovers, fans of metafiction, and anyone who's ever cheered for the underdog.
