Captain Ethan: Volume 1

Foooosh!  As Captain Ethan soared into the sky, he used his sonic hearing and heard a distant cry for help.  Somebody was going to be murdered!  Captain Ethan sprang into action, flying at high speed towards the call. He used his super strength and destroyed the symantic power lock.  He then bust in and put the killer in a plasma cage while beating up the other 5 thugs.  The next day everybody was buying the newspaper.  The headlines said: Who is Captain Ethan!  Meanwhile, Ethan enjoys breakfast with his children, Noel and Francesca, and his wife Nina.  Beep!  Beep!  Ethan's super hero gizmo was calling!  Ethan said he needed to go to work but really it was his day off, so he got his outfit and set off to the site.  Oh no!  It was Captain Ethan's arch nemesis,   Dr. Karnop!  He had to think fast, the world was in peril!  He quickly punched this way and that way! He defeated Dr. Karnop and saved the day once again!  THE END.
