Hoboman

By Liam Higham

Hobart Mann didn’t ask for the superhero life, but after his trolley is stolen, he is spurred on by his Japanese conscience to adopt the guise of Hoboman in an attempt to protect the citizens of Uptown from ever having to suffer the same injustice. Along the way he encounters villains such as Wiener Munch and the man on the mobility scooter, but with allies such as the Irishman, Justin Bubba and (reluctantly) Jean the talking potato, what could possibly go wrong? On his quest, Hoboman learns some valuable lessons, such as his origin story and the true meaning of genderqueer, on a quest that takes our hero to Heaven itself. Is he dead? Meh. Context.
