Synopsis "Angelman: Fallen Angel"

Easily the funniest super-hero comic to come down the pike since Harvey Kurtzman and Wally Wood's "Superduperman!," Angelman is Austrian cartoonist Nicolas Mahler's sardonic take on super-heroes, their fans, the businessmen behind them, the current media obsession with them, not to mention fancy-ass "Ultimate" collections of dopey super-hero comics.Created by Korporate Comics in a flash of money-grubbing cynicism appalling even by their standards, Angelman's powers (which include empathy and the ability to be a good listener) prove less than adequate to deal with the sinister threat of the insane plastic-surgeon villain Gender Bender -- or for that matter with the fickleness of fashion, the rapacious super-heroine Lady Dentata, the increasingly desperate re-boot attempts by Korporate Comics, his oddly twin-like wife, a disastrously bad movie adaptation that single-handedly brings the vogue for super-hero movies to a screeching halt... all delineated in Mahler's trademarked ultra-minimalism (albeit this time in spectacular color), and with his drier-than-dry wit.Includes a special checklist/price list of Angelman comics, a gallery, and extensive historical and explanatory footnotes by the author, this book will occupy a place of pride on the bookshelf of any comic book geek -- or anyone who just likes hilarious comics.
