Description
Book Synopsis
A 21st-century reinvention of the classic movie/animated series, written by Pulitzer finalist Matt Bors! The classic film and animated series returns to comics with a 21st-century spin. On the run from bullies, teenager Melvin Junko runs straight into a massive chemical waste spill that transforms him into a hideously deformed creature of superhuman size and strength--the Toxic Avenger! When representatives of the corporation responsible for the disaster arrive to cover it up, the Toxic Avenger leads his town in a fight for justice. Featuring violent action, gross mutations, bursting pustules, and plenty of trenchant satire.About the Author
