* ''Synopsis:'' After an adventure where she was called to another universe as part of a team of extraordinary women, Alex Mack returns home determined to stop fighting crime in secret and instead become her Earth's first true superhero. To help her, she plans on finding and recruiting her world's versions of the women who inspired her: [[Harry Potter|Hermione Granger]], [[Stargate SG-1|Dr. Samantha Carter]], [[DCU|Selina Kyle]], [[The Bionic Woman|Jaime Sommers]], [[Buffy the Vampire Slayer|Buffy Summers and Willow Rosenberg]]. With the aid of her family, she develops the persona of Terawatt, and enters the public stage with a bang. Not long afterward, she joins forces with a small, unconventional government agency created to deal with supers, and begins to build a team of talented people—both super and not—around herself. Along the way she becomes a global hero, and discovers a sinister conspiracy whose plans horrify even the hardened military types with whom she works...
* ''Tags:'' [[Mega Crossover]]—it incorporates elements from over 40 movies, books and TV shows.
* ''Comments:'' Very well-written, engaging, and satisfyingly ''long''—235 chapters. Alex's growth from "kid with powers" to basically her world's version of Superman is convincingly and entertainingly portrayed, as is the ensemble cast that assembles itself around her, starting with Willow Rosenberg, Silicon Valley millionaire. Alex goes through highs and lows, victories and defeats and hearbreakingheartbreaking losses in this complex story that eventually grows to have a global backdrop—and global-scale opposition.
:Inspired a ''massive'' multi-author shared-world project called ''[[The Teraverse]]'', which, while it rarely focuses on Alex Mack herself, explores the world she lives in to an amazing degree.
