About the series

Jim Valentino's normalman, published by Aardvark-Vanaheim across seven issues from 1984 to 1985, is a satirical superhero comedy that flips the genre on its head. The series follows the only person without powers on a planet full of absurdly costumed heroes and villains, including Captain Everything and Sgt. Fluffy. Written and drawn entirely by Valentino, it stands as a clever, self-aware deconstruction of comic-book tropes from the independent comics boom of the mid-1980s.
