About the series
From 1993 to 1994, Bongo Comics ran six issues of Radioactive Man, a playful, tongue-in-cheek superhero send-up born from the world of The Simpsons. Written and drawn primarily by Steve Vance, Cindy Vance, and Bill Morrison, the series mined classic Silver Age tropes for affectionate parody, chronicling the atomic-powered adventures of its hero and his nemesis, Dr. Crab. It stands as a faithful, standalone expansion of the fictional comic-within-a-cartoon, capturing the era's love of bombastic, four-color storytelling with a knowing wink.
