  • Flyover City! is a Web Serial Novel written in blog form, about a twenty-something slacker / fanboy who works as a call center employee for the "big evil empire". It's sorta like a mash-up of Superman's Pal, Jimmy Olsen, High Fidelity and Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy Provides examples of: * Charles Atlas Superpower: Lampshaded when the main character decides to pursue a career in crimefighting after his beloved 1975 Vespa is stolen. * Heroic Sacrifice: The Green Lama * The Load: See above. * Made of Phlebotinum: FC!'s superheroes can do all those superhero-y things that are impossible in the real world thanks to "Malphysical Particles", which create a cosmic loophole in the laws of physics, rendering them “malleable”. * Nikola Tesla: The archatypal mad scientist’s time in Colorado Springs plays a vital role in the plot. * Not So Different: Lampshaded. When the protagonist tells the big bad “…you know, we really aren't so different, you and I. Us, I mean.” - the villain is compelled to list off all the ways they are emphatically not alike. * Public Domain Character: pulp novel / comic book hero Green Lama serves as Mr. Exposition and Cynical Mentor. * Punny Name: Sinister Minister Deacon Struck. Because the story is all about deconstructing the superhero genre. Get it? Get it?? * Shock and Awe: Lilywatt * Stripperific: The electrified-whip wielding heroine Lilywatt goes undercover as a stripper (but only because the plot demands it). * Whip It Good: Lilywatt's electrically charged whips.
