Cover 1A (banana peel) by Bill Maus. Stories by Don Chin and Bill Maus. Art by Bill Maus, plus a pinup by Mark Lewis. Another superhero spoof by the creator of Adolescent Radioactive Black Belt Hamsters and his publishing outfit, Parody Press. This one uses DCs Death of Superman mega-crossover event as a springboard to poke fun at 1990s comics in general, including inter-company crossovers, variant covers, bad girl/good girl art, and the inevitable return from the grave for most (male) heroes. During and after Stupidmans battle with Gloomsday (a monster made entirely of cereal), numerous heroes from DC, Marvel and Image make cameos, as well as, appropriately enough, The Tick. 32 pages, B&W. Cover price $2.50.
