After getting caught showing off in a video post, Casey Caldwell finds himself hunted by the Insiders: a cadre of villains dedicated to keeping superhumanity a secret at any cost. Desperate to lure the deadly fiends away from the first scrap of happiness he’s ever known, Casey crafts a red mask and uses his evolving powers toJack upfrom a scrawny high school nobody into a swashbuckling video stunt hunk. As The Jack of All Trades, teasing the limits of human potential is all fun and ad revenue until the price of fame becomes the attention of people like him hiding in fear around the world. To defend his found family and stop The Insiders’ true agenda, The Jack will have to level up his Jack fu, load up a Belt of All Trades, and learn the one thing his impossible powers can’t teach him: how to be the world’s first superhero. * WHAT TO EXPECT A slice-of-life origin story that opens dark but gets fun fast. SLOW BURN:This isn’t yet the story of how The Jack of All Trades saved the world and lit the way for a generation of heroes. This is the story of how a scared high school nobody became the only man who could. SCIENCE FANTASY:An evolving power system without any billionaire mentors offering immediate explanations and free tights. WEAK TO STRONG MC:That’s pretty much our guy’s power set. FRIENDSHIP:A shameless bromance for the ages with a first-ever best friend. ACTION! COMEDY! MYSTERY! FEELS! This one has it all, true believer! * Book 1: Origin Story is complete at 41 chapters releasing every Monday/Wednesday/Friday (or more) into the future. Book 2: Jack Gone Wild will follow soon after.
