Welcome to Christopher Gary's imagination, an author with ASD who finds one of the greatest goals in life to be: Do not be bored. Second goal would likely be: Make people laugh. Down that list and mostly hidden behind the silly and the funny and the lame names are some other goals, but let's not spoil the whole thing. Have fun. Break the fourth wall. Skewer some tropes like s'mores.


"Imagine a world like a comic book where there are heroes, villains, monsters, divine beings, and everything in between. Powers of unimaginable scale flung around like it's dodgeball. In this world, chaos is both the ruler and the slave. The stronger survive and the weaker scramble to be better. In this world, even the most bizarre of powers can become something great.

Where would you stand in all of that? Would you be like a particle of water in an endless ocean of waves and tsunamis? Would you be a bystander in a world of wonders and horrors? Would you wish to become something significant, to be counted among the strong and powerful? Would you accept being weak and powerless?

Welcome to The World; an Earth-like planet that has a similar culture but different geography and people. This world has been called by many names; a dystopia. a paradise. The most accepted one is; The World. Obviously, everyone here is bad at naming something great. In The World, heroes and villains roam around and fight each other to gain power, fame, glory, and wealth. An endless cycle of fighting repeats itself moment to moment. Villains cause mayhem, heroes are implored by the people to help. These battles shape The World. Heroes usually win because they are 'righteous' and 'on the right side.' Sprinkle in some monsters, entities, and maybe some god-like beings, and you have The World, which despite or because of all the fighting going on is still dynamically alive."

"The city we live in is always in danger. Robots, zombies, ninjas, mutants, aliens, demons, fires... robot zombie ninja mutant alien demons on fire. They stir trouble on a daily basis. If you walk around, you're sure to meet someone in distress and save the day."

"Her-man had everything a stereotypically strong hero needed; a large chest, smaller waist, oily and swirly hair and a large chin. He looked so cheesy. He even wore white and blue Spandex with his underwear on the outside."

"Did you know there's a villain that can use her power on anything that has the letter 'P' in its name?"

"How in The World does THAT work?"

"She named herself Preaker - Breaker but with a 'P' - and she's a real hassle if you have the wrong name. The more P's in your name, the stronger she is."

"Then what would happen if something's name has like ten P's in it?"

"I dunno. Maybe she can destroy them with a single gentle touch."

"What if Her-man's name was suddenly like ten P's, how would that battle work?"

"You know, that's very interesting. That battle would probably be in her favor then. So she would be stronger than Her-man."

"So she would be the strongest villain ever, right?"

"Situationally. She's like a normal person if you don't have any P's in your name. The name has to be official too, no nicknames."

"The World is a strange place."

"You're telling me."
