PREVIOUSLY…

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 put upon you by your Mother, your (new) friends, and your opportunistic roommate BARRY... and live the lie!

Last issue, Greg narrowly escaped the Super Illustrated nude photo shoot, but landed in an equally embarrassing situation when Barry told Cathy she was disinvited to the People’s Choice Awards.

Meanwhile, Tarr’s kidnap victim was forced to infiltrate and steal intel from his old company – a private security contractor (hired to guard the People’s Choice Awards theater) that employs genetically evolved superbeings as guards. Unwittingly, Greg and Barry “Zoolander”-ed the hell out of the red carpet in their Hugo Boss tuxedos as Tarr and his deadly commandos used stolen intel to mount a siege on the theater.

THE TEAM

PATRICK BROSSEAU (LETTERER) Trained, many

moons ago, in the art of comic book lettering somewhere in the Burmese mountains by Artie Simek worshipping Tibetan monks, Patrick quickly rose to the top of lettering celebritydom, only to fall to the bottom after becoming addicted to sniffing felt-tip markers.

He now letters INDESTRUCTIBLE and other fine comic books, while daydreaming of lettering the perfect sound effect.
