Writer/Artist: Bob Burden
Genre:  Superhero

FROM COMICS LEGEND BOB BURDEN!

With no super powers to speak of, this free-wheeling, second-string, milltown hero usually just blasts his way out of a bad spot in a hail of gunfire and reckless violence. Then it’s down to the nearest seedy bar or strip joint for the blue plate special and a night of brawling, carousing and wanton debauchery! America’s first surrealist superhero! The poor man’s H-Bomb! The pied piper of fun! From the creator of the cult-classic Mystery Men comic and movie!
