In a world where superheroes are afforded all the advantages our celebrityobsessed culture has to offer...what would you do if the media mistook you for a G.E.P. (Genetically Elevated Person)? If you’re mild-mannered slacker GREG PINCUS, you cave to the pressure from your opportunistic roommate BARRY and live the lie!

Last issue, Greg and Barry are having the time of their lives at the People’s Choice Awards, but Barry’s search for hors d’oeuvres leads him to discover that the mysterious Tarr and his psycho-gang have infiltrated the building. Tarr unleashes a sophisticated nerve gas designed to paralyze all the superheroes in the audience, and Greg decides to play along, pretending that he, too, has been rendered a statue.

While the LAPD and FBI rush to set up a perimeter around the building, Barry rushes to the nearest broom closet…

Darby Kline is both the face of, and the inspiration for, Darby Pop Publishing. Sketching from the moment she leapt out of the womb, Darby is rarely spotted without colored pencils or markers in hand. If you’re lucky enough to meet her at one of the many conventions she attends, Darby might offer to draw you “anything” if you make a purchase. But be warned: “anything” refers to anything SHE wants to draw; Darby does not take requests.
