Summary
The year is 1953. Somewhere, Frederic Wertham is writing the book that will end the Golden Age of comics.
Somewhere else, J. Edgar Hoover is writing a memo that will scrub the "un-American" from the ranks of the FBI.One of these things will be the end of Eel O'Brian, otherwise known as Plastic Man—unless he reevaluates his priorities real quick. Lucky for him, if he's anything, he's flexible.
(16-page fancomic with written sections.)

Summary
"I’m only two minutes late!” Izuku protested. Had he missed the start of an important test? None of the national, standardized tests were supposed to happen this month and even being two minutes late to one of those wouldn’t elicit this sort of reaction. They were discussing their career interest forms today, but that was it. Nothing time-critical was supposed to be happening.
“Midoriya, you were reported missing a week ago. No one has seen you for eight days. The police have been combing the city for you.”
"I’m sorry. What?”
Midoriya Izuku went missing for a week and turned up in a back alleyway with skills he's never even heard of and no memory of how he came by them. He resigns himself to never learning the truth of what happened to him, but he shouldn't waste this chance should he? He could become a hero with reflexes like these.

Bookmarker's Notes
Writing is often a search for meaning. I set my characters up against each other and send them out looking for answers. They report back to me, tell me what they found. Mostly they tell me that they are as confused as I am, and then at least we can be confused together. When I have a good story in the works I find it harder to be lonely. I live in a daydream.

Summary
Elias hires a monster to work in the archives. One small decision that shouldn't make much of a difference.
Until someone's putting googly eyes over everything in the Institute, Melanie's having pizza parties to save the almost-life of a manifestation of the Stranger, Sasha's writing off payments for illegal phone hacks as a work expense, and Tim's trying to figure out how many helium balloons one needs to fill the boss' office with in order to get fired.
Oh yeah, and they still need to save the world.
