The new title of the superhero novel that will save me from beyond-the-grave homicide from the zombified corpse of Jack Kirby is: Seven Wonders, suggested by Slam from Comic Book Resources.
Why Seven Wonders? Three things:
1. My superteam has seven members. True enough, they’re not really the direct focus of the story, but they (and what they represent) play an important role.
2. The superteam is dysfunctional and arrogant with an absurdly over-the-top opinion of itself/themselves. Calling themselves “Wonders” reflects this.
3. The Seven Wonders of course implies the actual ancient Seven Wonders. As a legacy of civilisations aeons past, the title hints that the superteam are just one part of a much larger universe, bigger than everything and everyone, and that really they should take more care to keep their heads down in case someone bigger and badder takes notice…
Thanks to everyone else for the other suggestions. While Slam will get brutally killed in an eye-popping way in the story, there is actually a big scene in which the massed superteams of the world unite, so I could well throw in some of the other titles there. Proper credit will be given, of course!
Back to the writing…
