So, for a while I've been thinking about the different types of superheroes and what exactly qualifies a hero as "super", and I think I've figured out the three basic kinds of superhero that all superheroes are derivative from, think of these as kinda like genuses of the animal kingdom kinda, but for superheroes.

Atto the Artificial Man: The Birth Of A Hero (comic script)
(Authors note: here's a script I wrote a while ago that I really want to have made into a proper comic at some point, probably a part of an anthology taking place in the Diamoverse of my canon of work, already have a name for this anthology, MULTI-TEAM COMICS, named after the primary superhero team in the Diamoverse, at some point I'll either have the drawing ability to do it myself, have the money to hire artist or do it as a collaborative project with my friends, or maybe even some mix of the 3, anyways, here's the script, hope you enjoy)
Pg1
Panel1: skinny rectangular panel at the top of the page.
Action: we see Atto running through a wall at a criminal.
Title: Atto the artificial man in, the creation of atto.
Panel2: somewhat large vertical rectangle panel right below the first panel on the left side of the page.
Action: we see a scientist sitting in a dark room with other figures that are masked in shadow.
Scientist: welcome gentleman, as you may or may not be aware I've been researching and developing a fantastic new technology that is set to change the world, but you probably don't know the specifics of my scientific work as I have specifically kept this information out of the papers.
Panel3: somewhat large vertical rectangle panel right below the first panel on the middle of the page.
Action: the scientist stands up and begins to walk to a curtain.
Scientist: you see my dear friends, years ago on an expedition to an ancient Temple in the far east, I found an anomalous and strange stone that exuded a power beyond a person's wildest imagination.
Panel4: somewhat large vertical rectangle panel right below the first panel on the right side of the page.
Action: the scientist is at the curtain and pulls at it slowly revealing the window behind it.
Scientist: I brought the stone back to the States, I began doing studies on it and realized, it was the perfect power source for a project that I had dreamed of since I was a young boy and learned of the made men of myth.
Panel5: large horizontal rectangular panel at the very bottom of the page taking up a good portion of it.

Crowd: impossible, how'd he do that, the thing can teleport.
Panel5: small square again with the scientist.
Scientist: not teleport my good man, but move at such incredible speeds that appears to rival even the likes of Mercury, now watch this, Atto, bring me the penguin.
Panel6-8 same pattern as before with two small square panels starting from the middle going to the right and ending on a large rectangular panel at the bottom of the page.
Action: atto begins to walk towards the glass as his body begins moving and vibrating into a blur of green and orange and smeared details The birds still in his hands with this final panel showing him from the front super close to the glass seemingly about to break through it.

Pg4
Panel1-4: 3 normal small square panels and then a final rectangular panel with the penguin.
Action: we see as almost by magic the artificial man walks straight through the glass and wall as if nothing was there at all not even breaking anything, then presenting the squawking penguin to his creator.
Crowd: how, impossible, he's a ghost.
Scientist: no gentleman I assure you he is not a ghost.
Panel5-6: medium sized rectangles.
Action: we see the scientist walking over and grabbing the penguin as he talks.

Panel7: medium rectangle on the left side of the page.
Action: we see a close up of the scientist as he holds the penguin under his right arm.

Atto: while you were shooting at me so recklessly, I grabbed every bullet you guys shot and without you even noticing it, i began forming each bullet you shot at me into shoes of lead around your feet, how? well by using my incredible abilities of speed and power over matter of course.
Panel8: big bottom rectangle with a caption box on the bottom right hand side.

Scientist: You did good my son, this was truly a remarkable test of your incredible abilities and wit, I'll call the police to take care of these ruffians.
Caption: and triumphantly the day is saved by the artificial man ATTO, but where will our young hero go next, what's his next step as America's newest man of mystery and super powered hero, come back in the next issue of MULTI-TEAM COMICS to find out.
Atto the Artificial Man (character bio)
The world's fastest biomechanical being with the core of speed and time at his center, created by an adventurous scientist by the name of Fox Carmichael to fight crime and bust gangs and was eventually drafted as one of the first members in the Multi-Team during world War II.
Atto is an interesting case, being a robot you'd expect him to be rather humorless, constantly speaking about logic and such, and although that might be what you meet at the beginning you will quickly find out that that's an act to mess with people, with the real Atto being a lot more humorous and clever.
Always found with a smile on his face, Atto was created in the late 1930s by The adventurous doctor Fox Carmichael after a trip to a forgotten, beyond ancient Temple where he discovered a mysterious artifact of impossible power, the Core of Speed and Time.
Using this artifact he constructed a artificial body around it, a body not just of steel and aluminum, but also flesh grown with the doctor's own DNA, with Atto soon being born and shown to the world.
With his first demonstration being to a privately assembled group of fellow scientists and reporters who witnessed Atto's fantastic abilities of immense strength, speed and self molecular control.
Needless to say in the small middle American city he called home he would end up making quite the splash, busting crime and evil around every corner, soon catching the attention of the enigmatic hero The Skeleton, one of the big and first widely known mystery men, who would approach our metal speedster with a proposition, to be a part of a team of fantastic heroes like himself and fight the good fight overseas against the forces of evil.
Atto being the hero he was, was excited and giddy at the idea and already planning to accept the offer, especially since it was coming from such a legend as The Skeleton, and after discovering his new arch enemy, the evil wizard of time and speed, Speedstorr was allied with the Germans, Atto was more then willing to join.
Atto was soon fighting not only alongside his fellow Heroes such as Lady Justice, The Ice Cube the 2nd, John Joe Shootem the 3rd, Captain Electron, Tanko The Man Tank and of course The Skeleton but also the soldiers of the allied forces in some of the wars most important battles, most notably a clash at Normandy where Atto faced off against Speedstorr and his apprentice, Hans Blitzer nicknamed Blonde Streak by Atto, this conflict being were Atto unlocked the true power of the core of speed and time, but that is a story best saved to be told in the comics rather then explained here.

Sgt Spook in Haunting Hoodlums
(Note: this script is actively being edited)
Hello all whoever may be reading this, my name is holo and I'm a cartoonist, Writer, storyteller, comic historian and archivist and all around lover of sequential art.
And this is one of my comic scripts based on the golden age hero Sgt spook, a police officer who died do to a chemical explosion he caused and came back as a ghost to fight crime.
I personally am a huge fan of this character and the golden age as a whole and since this character was public domain I decided to try my hand at writing a comic story starring him but for various reasons it didn't exactly work out that way.
another reason I wanted to do this is because I discovered this characters existence through a YouTube video made to literally just make fun of the character, so I wanted to make this story to show the characters potential.
The best way I can describe spook is like if the DC hero Deadman got crossed with a pinch of ghost rider and the irreverent silliness of Deadpool while also having the deductive reasoning of Batman and somehow the innocence of Jimmy Olsen.
So now I'm releasing this, the raw script to the internet, and as far as I'm concerned this script is in the public domain just like the rest of Sgt spooks story canon, all I ask if you do decide to reprint, retell, adapt or otherwise redistribute the story is that you credit me the holozler as the creator of the script and of course shout out to the original creator of Sgt Spook Malcolm Kildale.
I'm told this is creative commons.
Anyways, that's enough of my rambling, your here for the story, so here it is.
Sgt Spook: Haunting Hoodlums
Pg1
Action: we see Sargent spook happily walking down the street, whistling a tune, walking and phasing through a fire hydrant until he hears a siren from the distance.
Sgt spook: what's that?
Pg2
Action: quickly, sgt spook runs/floats to the commotion and finds a bank, the police have just arrived surrounding it.
Pg3
Action: out of the bank comes a group of robbers 4 strong and shooting at the police as they suck out and run down an alleyway fleeing the police as sgt spook watches.
Sgt spook: I better stop those fiends.
Pg4
Action: sgt spook floats over to the robbers car and grabs their fender.
Sgt spook smile on his face.
Sgt Spook: surely this'll put a stop to there rampage.
Quickly the hit the engine and they drive away, spook looking a tad surprised ripping off the fender instead of stopping them, it looking to passers by as if the fender fell off.
Sgt spook: well, I still can stop them, just have to get a bit more creative.
Pg5
Action: we see sgt spook find a fire hydrant.
Sgt spook: if I time it just right, I can use this hydrant to wash those crooks out, really rain on their parade.
Action: he waits until there in the perfect position.
Pg6
Action: and then he starts his plan, opening the hydrant when the crooks are right in his crosshair, only for the gushing water to give the crooks a boost instead of "raining on their parade" leaving spook viably a tad bit frustrated.
Sgt spook: oh shoot, I need to find something else.
Pg7
Action: over this page we see several attempts of sgt spook trying to stop the bad guys, each attempt fails and only serves to aid the criminals, like him trying to fling some thumb tacks in the street only for them to hit the police cars and cause them to spin out, him trying to create a barricade by knocking over a few things into the street only to create a ramp and so on and so forth of failed attempt after failed attempt.
Pg8
Action: we see sgt spook, the Sun is going down and he's been following them for a while as the once City landscape is now country nowheres of greens and tans.
Sgt spook: I am getting these guys, and I'm tired of stuff not going my way, I'm getting these crooks, once and for all.
Pg9
Action: it's now dark as we see the crooks drive in and park at an old shabby farmhouse, it's night time and the crooks exit their car and quietly make their way to the farm house, shiftly looking around as they do so.
Pg10
Action: they all enter the house and the last one in shuts the door all done as quietly as a church mouse, they all walk over to a table.
Pg11
Action: they all sit down one by one at the table, they sit there for a moment.
Pg12
Jerry: well boys.
Action: one of them pulls up and slams a big bag of money on the table, they all begin laughing and bring out booze and go through their spoils.
Jerry: we did it ha haaaa.
Pg-13
Jerry: alright boys, get to counting, once your done will split our earnings.
Bill: aw common Jerry, can't we celebrate a little more before we start countin.
Jarry: no, we gotta get this done and taken care of quickly, we're taken a risk staying here to long.
Dave: aw common, you saw how it was out there, it's like God himself sent an angel to protect us, relax yourself and have a drink.
Action: Dave offers Jerry a bottle of booze.
Pg14
Action: Jerry looks at the bottle for a moment and ponders until grabbing it.
Jerry: alright, but we can't get carried away, we'll have some drinks and celebrate a little, but by sunrise we're outa here, got it.
Jon: alright boss.
Bill: gentleman.
Pg15
Action: we see bill holding his bottle up.
Bill: I propose a toast not only cause we didn't get caught, not only to the loot, but also to Jerry, our leader and brave planner, untightening his ass for once haha.
Action: everyone begins giggling except Jerry.
Bill: but in all seriousness.
Pg16
Action: we see bill hold his bottle high into the air over the table.
Bill: here's to us and our new found moolah, here here.
Action: every one clinks their bottles together over the table while here herring.
Pg17
Action: the lights go out as soon as the bottles meet.
Jerry: oh #$&@ it must be the coppers, we gotta-
Bill: Jerry calm down, it's probably just the fuse box is on the fritz, this place was abandoned for a while before we came along, now Jon.
Jon: yeah boss.
Pg18
Bill: can ya go and check the box and fix the lights.
Jon: sure thing boss.
Action: the giant of a man lumber's out of the house.
Bill: alright, wall he's fixing the problem we can do a little bit of celebrating, bottoms up boys.
Dave: wait.
Pg19
Dave: gentleman, you mind if we say grace before we-.
Action: the lights flicker back on.
Bill: well would you look at that, Jon got it fixed faster then I expe-.
Action: before bill can finish two blood curdling screams are heard causing the three men to start reacting their own ways, Jerry seems very freaked out, Dave is worriedly looking towards where the sound is coming from and bill is freaked out but keeping a stern face.
Jon: YEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAHG.
Pg20
Dave: oh my Lord, did y'all hear that.
Jerry: sounded like Jon, do ya think.
Bill: you guys really think Jon is in trouble, he's probably just messing with us.
Action: the two stare at bill for a moment.
Bill: what, you don't believe me.
Pg21
Action: they stare for a moment more.
Jerry: no we do not.
Bill: alright then, grab your guns and come with me, and will see that I'm right.
Pg22
Action: they walk outside, and something is watching them from atop a windmill, Jerry sees the thing and quickly turns to his friends as they walk, but as soon as he looks back the thing is gone. (this is shown by a group of four landscape panels the first is of the guys walking and the thing on the windmill in the pale moonlight, the second is Jerry noticing it, the third is Jerry turning back to his friends reaching out to them as his head covers the thing, and the final one is Jerry turning back after his head passed the windmill and the thing is gone).
Pg23
Action: they continue walking to the back of the farm, Jon holds a lantern and his pistols, while the other 2 only have their pistol, they turn the corner, they all seem to be shocked at what they see.
Pg24
Action: the power box is busted up, seeming to be absolutely savaged by a blunt object, there are definite signs of a struggle besides that with some of the overgrown shrubbery around the area being broken, Jon's pistol and family heirloom that went through three wars lay broken to pieces on the ground.
Jerry: do ya still think this a joke bill.
Bill: well, at least I'm not afraid of my own shadow.
Pg25
Action: we see bill and Jerry start their argument in the background as in the foreground we see Dave notice something, Wall they argue we see Dave find a blood splatter that leads him to markings that implies someone was dragged, then he looks where these markings go and sees the field behind the farmhouse with a scarecrow in the center of it.
Jerry: the hells that supposed to mean.
Bill: you heard me you big sissy, your a coward and you've always been yellow between the ears.
Jerry: I think you're forgetting who the boss is around here boy, I planned the Robbery and.
Bill: and you hid behind us as we did all the heavy lifting, you may be smart but you have the backbone of a chicken.
Pg26
Action: Dave begins looking closely at the scarecrow and as he looks squinting to do so more and more of the scarecrow becomes more and more visible with the camera perspective of the panel zooming in, while the face is still masked by shadow and darkness, then a cloud passes by the moon and the lunar light is shined on the scarecrow, and Dave is horrified.
Bill: and even then I think I'm giving you to much credit.
Jerry: now you just listen here you mindless brutish wild gunman, I ain't cowardly, I'm cautious, and think more then just one step ahead, if you didn't have me I bet you would have all just ran into that bank shot everyone took the money without even setting up a home base and-.
Bill: and look how good having a home base is turning out.
Pg27
Dave: Jesus almighty!
Bill: what the hell i- oh god.
Action: now completely visible the scarecrow is clearly Jon crucified, his face bloody and vacant, the men stare in shock and horror, a sorrowful breath leaving his lips, seemingly his last.
Pg28
Action: all of them quickly run back into the house and Jerry and Bill begin barricading the door.
Jerry: what the hell man what the hell.
Bill: I don't know, I don't know.
Dave: did y'all see it.
Pg29
Action: while the two men are barricading the door, the two turn to face Dave as he stands looking away from them into the house.
Bill: yes I saw it, Jon was beaten to death and hanging on a cross.
Dave: no, no not that, the thing next to it.
Jerry: what do you mean next to it.
Pg30
Dave:...
Jerry: Dave, are you ok.
Dave: I saw something next to Jon out der, it looked like a, like a copper, but, but all wrong.
Action: while Dave speaks Jerry and Bill are looking concerned as they look at each other.
Dave:... I don't think god aided our escape today gentleman.
Pg31
Dave: I believe it was the devil, and he has come for our sinful souls.
Bill: Dave are you ok.
Action: Dave turns to bill and Jerry shocking them, Dave's face contorted in horror and humor.
Dave: and he's come after me second.
Pg32
Action: Dave lunges at his comrades laughing and crying manically, bill and Jerry doge out of the way, Dave crashes into the barricade Jerry and Dave made.
Pg33
Action: Dave is staggered.
Bill (hushed tone): we gotta hide, upstairs quick.
Action: Jerry nods, panic in his face, and they quickly go up stairs as Dave slowly gets up from the floor.
Pg34
Action: Dave gets up and looks around, his arm broken, grotesquely snapping back into place.
Dave: it is no matter, the devil will get you soon he'll get all of us soon, all of us sinful.
Action: Dave's head shakes violently for a moment, and his voice seems to change.
Dave?: villainous crooks and Your Ill gotten gains shall be taken to justice.
Action: Dave continues his manic laughter and crying.
Pg35
Action: we now see Bill and Jerry upstairs hiding freaked out soon the laughter and crying gets accompanied by crashing and bashing.
Pg36
Action: the commotion stops, Jerry looks out the window and sees Dave, (the next moments we see from Jerry's perspective), Dave's hands are glistening red in the moonlight covered in his own blood, as he walks out of the house and towards the edge of the field.
Dave: I am ready dark lord, I have accepted my sin and I want my punishment, take me, so my soul may be punished.
Action: Dave opens his arms like he's about to hug someone in the sky and after he's done talking he slowly begins to rise into the air.
Pg37
Action: and then dave quickly gets yanked above the field, he begins screaming in terror as he's pulled back and forth in the air until quickly being dragged straight to the ground with a mighty thud, we see Jerry in the window, absolutely terrified.
Pg38
Action: Jerry looks back at bill.
Jerry: bill, did ya see that.
Action: bill silently nods.
Bill: ye-yeah I did, what the hell is going on.
Jerry: I don't know, I think only god knows.
Pg39
Action: there's silence for a moment.
Jerry: well, I don't think we should stay here.
Bill: are you crazy, you saw what happened to Dave didn't ya.
Jerry: yeah, that's all the more reason for us to bolt.
Pg40
Bill: wha.
Jerry: think about it, whatever that thing is, it'll come in for us eventually, and when it dose where cornered, best thing to do is book it to the car and drive as fast as we can.
Action: Bill thinks for a moment.
Bill: alright, let's get out of here, but you lead the way since it's your plan.
Action: Jerry nods.
Action: they walk back down the stairs from their hiding place.
Pg41
Action: we see Jerry and Bill slowly making their way through the dark decrepit farmhouse to it's back exit, the only light coming from the Moon outside shining in through windows and the doorway, it's blue glow barely noticeable and illuminating something That is following them.
Pg42
Action: the backdoor is seen, Jerry silently jestjers to bill as they begin approaching the exit.
Pg43
Jerry: it looks like we may be home free billy.
Action: bill does not respond and he's not seen behind Jerry as Jerry's at the precipice of the exit.
Pg44
Action: Jerry quickly speed walks out the back door, he then turns back a smile on his face.
Jerry: looks like where almost ho-.
Action: Jerry's Joy quickly evaporates into utter fear as he looks back at something.
Pg45
Action: we see over the shoulder of Jerry into the house through the backdoor, inside the dark dim hallway the legs of Bill are seen, he's being pushed up against the wall and light choking sounds can be heard until his legs disappear into the darkness.
Pg46
Action: silence for a moment until a blood curdling scream is heard, Jerry petrified and fear as he looks at the back door, he sees a foot step out from the darkness into the pale moonlight of the night.
Pg47
Jerry: wha, wha, what are you.
Action: the thing completely steps out into the light yet we only see bits and pieces of its chard cadaverous form alongside various shots of Jerry's reaction to it's horrible visage.
Creature: I am here, to take you away.
Pg48
Action: Jerry looks pale as he begins slowly stepping backwards tripping in the process which in a moment causes the creature to lunge in a blur of advanced motion.
Pg49
Action: we see a full double page spread as the creature is seen in its entirety, it appears to have been a cop at one point but the entire front part of its body is charred and blackened, guts hang out of its stomach as the skin and clothing that once covered it has now been burned away, his face is nothing but a skull, an angry skull with putrid ripped and torn skin around it, it's completely lit by the blue moonlight with a light transparency to its form and towers over Jerry as it lunges towards his terrified miniscule crawling cowering form.
Pg50
Action: black panel.
Caption: the next day.
Action: we see officers outside a police station looking at something, Them all baffled and confused.
Cop 1: these are them all right from yesterday.
Cop 2: what happened to them, they seem different, like they've seen something that made em paler then ghosts.
Cop 3: that don't matter.
Action: now we're looking at the criminals who robbed the bank all tied up together sitting on the concrete of the sidewalk in front of the police station, all of them seem too terrified to speak but in very different ways ranging from Jerry's twitchy terror, bills 1000 yard stare, Jon's brain dead teeth clenched fear and Dave closed eyes head down in some sort of prayer.
Cop 3: what's important now is that we have them in custody and we have the goods they stole to return to the bank.
Pg51
Action: we zoom out to see Sergeant spook looking at the situation from the top of a building across the street dusting his hands.
Cop 3: besides judging from the looks of it, I'd say we rather not know what got them.
Sgt spook: well that's a job well done, I wonder if They've learned their lesson, now off to continue my eternal patrol for justice, but I wonder, why were they screaming so much.
Hope you enjoyed my story.
