Captain Spectacular #4<\/strong><\/p>\n

I missed an issue in there (maybe I can find it at the next SPACE), but this issue seems to me to be a big improvement over #2, and I liked that one just fine.\u00c2\u00a0 It had (and I know this is a big claim) the single best kick to the groin in the history of comics.\u00c2\u00a0 This issue deals briefly with Captain Spectacular fighting the Geyser Geezer, and after that’s taken care of it’s time for him to use him secret identity: The Janitor.\u00c2\u00a0 It turns out that The Janitor is also a super hero, although his job is exactly what it sounds like: he sneaks into buildings under cover of darkness and cleans them.\u00c2\u00a0 This has set off local law enforcement, as they seem to hate vigilantes of all types.\u00c2\u00a0 This had the feel of a bit of an “in between” issue, as it starts with a fairly meaningless (but amusing) fight and ends with the appearance of what must be the next big villain.\u00c2\u00a0 In the meantime we get to see both heroes in action, the obsessed detective and\u00c2\u00a0 get a clear view of how the world sees both the heroes.\u00c2\u00a0 The art seems to have improved as well, as the backgrounds are impressive in their scope and Nate can definitely tell a story with facial expressions alone.\u00c2\u00a0 As far as superhero parodies go, there are a lot of stinkers out there, but this one seems like it’s worth keeping an eye on.\u00c2\u00a0 $2.50<\/p>\n
