Description: "This comic contains: One neurotic Super-Hero type with a variety of personal problems; one bad-guy bent on world domination through arcane means; assorted villainous hench-people; the hero's nefarious employer, pathetic family, and well-endowed girlfriend; a plot containing a conflict, a subplot, a resolution, a plot twist, and as many fights as it takes to fill up the rest of the pages." A rather self-indulgent in-joke relating the comics industry to the flood of own-brand (or no-brand) grocery and household products in supermarkets in the 1980's (cheaper, less satisfying alternatives to the 'name' labels), this one-off presents a no-frills super-hero story, competently but indifferently dashed off. In keeping with the joke, there are no credits in the book, but writer Steve Skeates did admit later in interview that he had provided the script.
