About the series
A one-shot revival of Jim Valentino's cult-classic superhero parody, this 2004 Image special catches up with the titular normalman—the lone being without powers on a planet of bizarre heroes—two decades after his original series. Valentino writes and draws a standalone story that reflects on the character's legacy while delivering the same offbeat humor and meta-commentary that defined his earlier work. It's a brief but welcome return for fans of the original run, offering a nostalgic glimpse at one of Image's earliest creator-owned oddities.
