Siegel and Shuster attempted to sue for their rightful piece of the greatest icon of the 20th century, but court after court found the contracts they signed were ironclad. Mind, that’s about $2,750 counting for inflation by today’s standards, but still just pennies compared to the billions of dollars in licensing and merchandising that the Superman brand has made the modern day DC Comics and its parent companies today. But before that original strip would even run in Action Comics #1, they would lose control of their greatest creation which would change the cultural landscape forever – signing over the rights to National Comics publishers Jack Liebowitz and Harry Donenfeld for $130. In 1938, the Cleveland, Ohio based writer/artist team of Jerome Siegel and Joseph Shuster debuted their greatest creation to the world: an all-powerful champion of the oppressed with an 'S' emblazoned in a triangle on his chest, identifying him as the one and only Superman.

When Kaitlyn saves Martin from a nefarious plot, Martin uses the opportunity to push Kaitlyn out of her comfort zone: spring break, one week, house parties, bathing suits, and suntan lotion. Kaitlyn wants Martin for his brain, specifically to tabulate findings of trace elements in surface water. Kaitlyn might be the only girl who isn’t interested in exploiting his stunning rower’s build, chiseled features, and family's billionaire fortune. Despite her best efforts, she can’t escape the notice of Martin Sandeke-bad boy, jerkface bully, and the universe’s hottest, wealthiest, and most unobtainable bachelor-who also happens to be Kaitlyn’s chemistry lab partner. Kaitlyn Parker has no problem being the invisible girl, which is why she finds herself hiding in various cabinets and closets all over her college campus. He is everything she doesn’t want, so why does she want him so badly?įrom the New York Times Bestselling Author Penny Reid This is a previously-published edition - ASIN: B00UPU50EQ The heat between the men could sear the grass off the range, but each one is hiding a secret. He wants to be plain old Zeke for a while, and when he returns to his family ranch, he bumps right into Robert-a one-night stand from his last rodeo appearance who is now working there as a ranch hand. Hy Whitely was a championship bull rider until he watched his best friend thrown in the arena and decided the rodeo circuit was no longer the place for him. Maybe getting to be a regular guy for a while will get him past his block. He changes his appearance and finds honest hard work in Jackson, Wyoming. He’s unable to write any new songs, and he wants out of the business-at least for a while. But behind that persona is Robert, a burned-out musician cracking under the pressure. Avery Rivers is a country music sensation, selling records by the millions and playing to sold-out crowds. He admits they had a fight and he punched John who fell into Loch Ness when something in the water killed his partner. His dad is on trial for killing his business partner John Cialini, Jr. Though he would prefer not returning to his birthplace in Scotland as he remains angry with his father Angus for cheating on his mother who took him to live with her in NYC seventeen years ago, Zach has no choice. He is unsure what is next for him when he is asked to come home. He is fortunate to survive though he comes out of the calamity with feelings of Aquaphobia not a good thing for marine biologist and dumped by his fianc e Lisa. Marine biologist Zach Wallace is on a National geographic quest to find the famous recluse the Sargasso Sea giant squid when tragedy strikes. Both specialization and range are necessary for human progress and fulfillment, but-as Epstein illustrates over the course of his book-range is uniquely positioned in the Information Age as a way to inject newfound creativity and outsized results for those who embrace it. Whereas hyperspecialization suggests a linear path from A to B, the narrative of range is more complex and circuitous, filled with detours and cul-de-sacs. Epstein contrasts this with “range,” an alternative approach that integrates knowledge from multiple domains. Hyperspecialization is the idea that a singular-focus combined with deliberate practice is the optimal path to success in a given field. Range: Why Generalists Triumph in a Specialized World by David Epstein (2019) is a thoughtful counterpoint to the narrative that success is best achieved through hyperspecialization. I fell in love with the Brothers and their shellans. Obviously that’s an exaggeration (or is it?) but you get what I’m saying. Why? Because JR Ward has a way of making a reader’s heart full and happy then ripping it, stomping on it and returning it back. I am a fan of the Black Dagger Brotherhood series but I got to admit that there have been few books in this series that made me want to throw my kindle across the room. But Mary is on a journey of her own, one that will either bring them closer together or cause a split that neither will recover from… After suffering mortal injury in battle, Rhage must reassess his priorities-and the answer, when it comes to him, rocks his world…and Mary’s.

Mary, his beloved shellan, is by his side and his King and his brothers are thriving. But as the Brotherhood readies for an all-out attack on them, one of their own fights a battle within himself…įor Rhage, the Brother with the biggest appetites, but also the biggest heart, life was supposed to be perfect-or at the very least, perfectly enjoyable. The slayers of the Lessening Society are stronger than ever, preying on human weakness to acquire more money, more weapons, more power. After avoiding war with the Shadows, alliances have shifted and lines have been drawn. Nothing is as it used to be for the Black Dagger Brotherhood. Join the journey of the Most Powerful Warlock… 27842 What happens when the boy that has awakened several powers at once starts seeking vengeance.Ĭan the protectors of humanity face the wrath of the Strongest Warlock?
