Mature Readers It's tough living up to the family name. It's even tougher living up to the family superhero name. And it's really tough when you have no idea what the name means in a contemporary context. Thus, we present the story of The Gay Avenger — full of pathos, action, and embarrassing name-derived misunderstandings! Witness the life of Butch Baxter, raised on a rice paddy in the Midwest, home schooled, and shielded from anything more threatening than polka music! Assuming his grandfather's heroic mantle, he travels to Gothopolis and discovers that to city folks, the name "The Gay Avenger" doesn't translate as "The Happy Vengeance Man." Not that he has time to sulk: he's in love with a lesbian, at war with Neo-Nazis, and desperately trying to correctly use modern slang!
