The Legion Of Nothing is a Web Serial Novel (and also a book) about the Grand Lake Heroes League of Grand Lake, Michigan, a team of teenagers with superpowers. It is written by author Jim Zoetewey.They are the children and grandchildren of the members of the original Grand Lake Heroes League, a group of former World War II soldiers who were part of an elite unit of superpowered soldiers. They came home after the war and continued to use their powers to combat organized crime and other villains, powered and otherwise in the 1950's.The lead character, and the one through whom the story is told is Nick Klein. His grandfather was the Gadgeteer Genius known as The Rocket. Among his inventions, a suit of Powered Armor equipped with numerous weapons and a rocket pack (not unlike Iron Man). Nick isn't really sure he wants to take up the superhero mantle, but a group of his friends decide to revive the League, and Nick in turn dons his grandfather's armor.Both parts a Super Hero and Coming of Age story, Fans of the series have noticed its sense of humor and use of pacing. Cliffhanger endings are common due its serial nature. | |

Secret Identity | |
| Legion of Nothing / int_112890b3 | comment |
Secret Identity: All the League have secret identities, but some are better at hiding them than others. This is a point of friction with the many detractors of vigilante justice in the story. | |

Personality Powers | |
| Legion of Nothing / int_4bf3d8d7 | comment |
Personality Powers: Storm King is broody and unpredictable, Accelerando is always in a rush and Captain Commando is irrepressible. This is also inverted with Nick and Alex in Three. Nick's Powered Armor causes a lot of damage but he worries about hurting people, even the ones he's fighting. On the other hand Alex has the power to heal others but doesn't think about the consequences of his actions. | |

Sitcom Arch-Nemesis: The best way to describe the relationship between Nick and Guardian other than Headbutting Heroes. Nick and the team made a bad impression on Guardian when they first met and he chewed them out for being irresponsible teenagers. This in turn made a bad impression on Nick, who from that point on explicitly says Guardian is his least favorite hero, can barely hold a conversation with him, and tends to avoid people who associate with him. | |

Required Secondary Powers | |
| Legion of Nothing / int_5b6e57e | comment |
Required Secondary Powers: Mostly averted, as the author describes most powers pretty accurately before they become useful, but Accelerando's catching a skin-eating acid bomb without harm due to her necessary super-strength still came as a surprise. Arguably, most of Accelerando's powerset are these with respect to her super speed. She has the strength to push herself that rapidly, reflexes fast enough to react at that speed, and is tough just to survive the punishment her body undergoes to run that fast. Although how 'required' they are is up for debate, since Justice Fist's Jody has at least as much speed as Accelerando while lacking the secondary powers. | |

Badass Normal: Nick is capable of beating up the big guys even when he's not wearing the Rocket Suit. He Knows Kung Fu, after all. Remarkably, most of the super-villains in the story are un-powered folks who use cunning and technology to give the supers hell. One team, the Executioner(s), succeeded in murdering several supers and their families before the Legion took them down. Or did they?? They took down the Executioner for real at the end of Book 3 | |

Technical Pacifist: Nick doesn't like hurting people (an interesting perspective for someone who once 'just punched them until they stopped'), and is always concerned that he's killed those he defeats.

Badass Crew | |
| Legion of Nothing / int_8879db82 | comment |
Badass Crew: Every super team seems to qualify for this. There is a team of superhero assassins called The Executioner, which managed to murder several superheroes and their families. Evil? For sure. Badass? Most definitely. Subverted with Three, a trio of teenaged supers in California. The group themselves are pretty badass in a fight, but their nominal leader, Alex aka Paladin, seems to excel at getting them in trouble. In particular, one ill-advised prank almost gets them and several other people killed. Brooke (Alex's girlfriend) and Nick stepping up is what keeps them from being obituaries. | |

Handicapped Badass: The Rocketsuit unsurprisingly gets banged up a lot in battles, leaving it with less than full capability. The standout example is the Alternate Universe chapter, "The Omnishpere" (by guest author Robert Rodgers, based on Jim Zoetewey's original characters) where Nick fights the supervillian War. By the time the battle climaxes, the Rocket has no jetpack or flight capability and completely loses function in one arm. | |

| Legion of Nothing / int_d06ff4fc | comment |
Corporate-Sponsored Superhero: The superhero team Protection Force. Larry was one too, but over the years as he established his business he got rid of all but one of them. Even then, he's still better known for his beer than actual hero work. | |

What the Hell, Hero? | |
| Legion of Nothing / int_d39e327f | comment |
What the Hell, Hero?: The League gets a chewing out over all their mistakes in The Beginning, the hero giving the lecture even sends them to his website. Nick and Chris give Sean one when he goes overboard helping them stop Jack Maniac by repeatedly slamming him against the floor, that his Powered Armor started to come off. | |

The Captain | |
| Legion of Nothing / int_d99d9918 | comment |
The Captain: Subverted. The Legion has no set Command Roster yet. They're trying out a rotating command schedule for now. In one serial, Nick kind of jumps out to the lead in helping another group of supers when a prank goes wrong. | |

Fake Ultimate Hero: Sean keeps taking credit for the League's work. Between his attitude and his Magnetoesque powers, he has the makings of either an awesome Arch-Nemesis or an Anti-Hero. | |

Lamarck Was Right | |
| Legion of Nothing / int_da38c13f | comment |
Lamarck Was Right: Most Kids seem to inherit their parents powers, but how their parents got them is mostly left to imagination. We'll have to wait and see how this one plays out. We later learn that most genetic powers are a result of the Abominators tampering with humanity's evolution. | |

Badass Unintentional | |
| Legion of Nothing / int_e5da07dd | comment |
Badass Unintentional: Brooke, aka The Portal. A teenage superhero and the girlfriend of Alex, and, a member of 'Three'. On the surface, she talks and acts like The Ditz. When her boyfriend's dumbass prank and even dumber-ass counterattack get himself, her, Nick, and Jenny captured; it is she who steps up to the plate. For starters, while everyone else gets stunned with paralysis rays, she fakes it, just so that she can get a drop on the bad guys. And then she helps Nick come up with the plan to not only escape but to beat up the bad guys on the way out. | |
