Alexander Suggs

Alexander is a South Carolinian writer whose work dives into queer themes, mental health, and rich religious symbolism. His stories are shaped by his religion, his belief in the sacredness of authentic identity, and a desire to create worlds where readers can finally see themselves reflected where they normally wouldn’t. He began writing as a way to process his own struggles and to give hope to people who needed it most. Alex strives to offer representation, healing, and the sense of being understood, the very things he himself has always searched for in books. Beyond his writing, Alex is an artist who brings the same themes to his visual 2D works. He shares his life with his partner, Felis, who he loves dearly. Being a lifelong lover of superheroes, he continues to build stories that show how anyone, and he means anyone, can be a hero.

Moonphase Book Cover

The Capes of Virginia are an elite team of meta-humans chosen to protect major cities. They are famous, respected, and most importantly, a major joke.

Well, a joke according to the words of the infamous vigilante, MoonPhase.

After a suicide attempt gone horribly wrong, ordinary high school student Blake Carter finds himself with the ability to create electricity. With these powers, Blake is finally able to do what he has always dreamed of: handle his repressed traumas by punching things. The government is not fond of MoonPhase’s vigilante tactics and has decided to take action. Two Cape members, Flame and Lotus, are chosen to discover MoonPhase’s identity and silence him. However, all across the state people are falling victim to seizures at work. The three must now join forces with the Rebels, a metahuman vigilante gang, to find out the cause. Tensions rise as the Capes, Rebels, and MoonPhase fall into a discourse about meta morality. But tensions are also rising quickly between MoonPhase and a certain hot head. If Flame and MoonPhase have a bit of a fling… who needs to know?
