REALM OF HEROES AND MONSTERS: STORY TIME with A.P. FUCHS: S02EP11 –

Something Rotten Up North

Episode 11: Something Rotten Up North – When Axiom-man is notified of the dead coming back to life in Flin Flon, Manitoba, he takes flight and heads north to verify the terrible news. Upon his arrival, he is greeted by hordes of the walking dead. As he struggles to fight them and search for survivors, Axiom-man soon discovers the problem is far worse than he thought.

This episode is the pinnacle of Heroes and Monsters because this time we have Axiom-man facing off against zombies. Now, he’s done it before in THE DEAD LAND (stick around until after the credits for more on this book) but I wanted to have him fight the undead again, so this little publisher had a brainwave of an idea and assembled a group of indie writers who had superhero creations of their own. The rules? None, other than it had to be your superhero versus at least one zombie. What came in for stories was amazing and so the anthology, METAHUMANS VS THE UNDEAD was born, as was the METAHUMANS VS series.

Tune into this exciting episode of superhero and monster mayhem with A.P. Fuchs!

Thanks for listening.

Cheers!

Publishing Books: The First Half of 2024 in Review

Posted on July 2, 2024 5:00 am by A.P. Fuchs

Publishing Books: The First Half of 2024 in Review

Since we’re at the halfway mark of 2024, I thought this would be a good time to review what’s been published this year so far. Link to book page in the descriptions, but this is where we stand so far in publishing books this year.

There will be a publishing gap until later in the fall. There might be one thing, but that’s in floating status at the moment. The work is done. Just an issue of assembly.

AXIOM-MAN/CRIMSON CLOAK: SCARLET SYNERGY:

Surrounded by a strange red mist, Axiom-man finds himself in a world not his own. Not again. Meeting a man who calls himself the Crimson Cloak, Axiom-man and this red stranger must fight their way through a hotel of madness where each new floor brings on a deadly challenge. Go to book page.

CAUGHT IN BLACK HEADLIGHTS: POETRY COLLECTION:

All right, World, this is how it’s going to be: Rhymes and verse, Melodies rehearsed, across life’s rocky sea. Read a poem, maybe two, pick three if you wish to dare. Ramblings and coherence, sometimes jots of incoherence, anything for poetic flare. Enjoy and explore, please do, I implore. Let’s talk about life bizarre ’cause it’s pretty complex stuff, said Harvey Pekar. Go to book page.

THE CANISTER X TRANSMISSION: THE VERY LONG YEAR SIX:

Running from June 2020 to March 2024, readers received news straight from A.P. Fuchs’s bunker studio at Axiom-man Central that was meant to engage, entertain, and have some fun. Go to book page.

For all titles, please visit the Realm of Heroes and Monsters on Amazon.

Caught in Black Headlights Poetry Book Bestseller

Just a simple thank you to those who have been supporting my poetry book, CAUGHT IN BLACK HEADLIGHTS. It means a lot that a book of verse and rhyme are catching peoples’ interest.

Of course, poetry had to lose out to superheroes and monsters, but who doesn’t love METAHUMANS VS THE UNDEAD?

Anyway, thank you.

The Glamorous Life of a Writer: Writing Axiom-man

Posted on June 5, 2024 5:00 am by A.P. Fuchs

The Glamorous Life of a Writer:

Writing Axiom-man

Photo by author Melinda Marshall

As you can see, the writing life is just like the movies. I have an assistant, a publisher ringing my phone off the hook because I’m late on deadline and they need the manuscript ASAP, stacks of notebooks and looms of paper. Books line the walls and typewriters and pens litter the table.

But if you squint your eyes just the right way, you’ll see the truth about a writer writing. This is how I bring you stories. This is where the work is done.

This . . . is writing Axiom-man.

Status report – 041724:

All right, we’ve got a full roster going on over here. Between the stuff you see on a daily basis and working on stuff behind the scenes that you’ll see eventually, we have our hands full.

Right now we’re:

1) Writing AXIOM-MAN: THE SUMMONING
2) Freelance editing for a client
3) Creating daily content for you both here on this blog and across the Web
4) Getting the second season of the Realm of Heroes and Monsters: Story Time podcast ready for launch (I’m building a queue to ensure you get it weekly)

And a day job.

But basically, our creative focus is on the Axiom-man books for this year. My main goal is to get the first drafts done by summer with, say, mid-July completion at the latest. Then all the heavy lifting is done and it’s just an issue of cleaning things up before publication.

The secret to getting all the above done and maintaining the schedule is just that: maintaining the schedule. Work on something every day and eventually you’ll get what you need out of it.

Back to work.

Axiom-man vs Axiom-man?

Posted on April 13, 2024 10:27 am by A.P. Fuchs

Axiom-man vs Axiom-man?

Had to check in on something with the distributor and say this! The new Axiom-man release is in the lead in my overall book sales but the 10th Anniversay Special Edition of AXIOM-MAN is a close second. I’m glad people are checking out the first book. I hope I win them over so they check out the rest of this superhero series.

The first edition of AXIOM-MAN was written and published at a time when independent superhero books were not a thing. There was me and maybe five other people publishing their own hero. Now, independent superheroes are everywhere. My hope is THE AXIOM-MAN SAGA can keep up.

If you tuned into this week’s newsletter, you got a quick glimpse at an upcoming event in AXIOM-MAN: THE SUMMONING. Newsletter readers and Patreon patrons always get the news first. A perk of part of being in the club.

Anyway, who from the above will ultimately win? Will newcomer the Crimson Cloak beat out a hero that’s been around for a decade and a half? We’ll soon find out in this Axiom-man vs Axiom-man battle!

Be sure to tune into this blog again. Same Axiom time. Same Axiom channel.

Cheers.

Axiom-man/Crimson Cloak: Scarlet Synergy

Surrounded by a strange red mist, Axiom-man finds himself in a world not his own.

Not again.

There is something different about this world, something familiar. Something that feels like . . . home. But this place of red mist and darkness belongs to another crusader, this one in a dark red trench coat, a blood-red cloak, and a fedora casting shadows on a face with goggles and a strange mask.

With no clue where this red mist brought him, Axiom-man and this crimson stranger are swept into a bizarre hotel where each floor brings a deadly new mission, and to make matters worse, Axiom-man doesn’t have his powers.

Trial upon trial ensues as Axiom-man and a man who calls himself the Crimson Cloak try to survive deadly traps in a building from hell.

One blue. One red.

One common enemy.

The battle to survive begins.
