The Concept: With no super powers to speak of, this free-wheeling, second-string, milltown hero usually just blasts his way out of a bad spot in a hail of gunfire and reckless violence. Then it’s down to the nearest seedy bar or strip joint for the blue plate special and a night of brawling, carousing and wanton debauchery! America’s first surrealist superhero! The poor man’s H-Bomb! The pied piper of fun! From the creator of the cult-classic Mystery Men movie!

This Issue: The legendary Flaming Carrot returns in his brand new series from IMAGE & DESPERADO! Flaming Carrot solves the mystery of the pygmies in the woods who are constructing a giant ear out of French bread. The newswoman, who Flaming Carrot seduces in the last issue to avert bad press and character assassination, goes into a jealous rage when she learns of his upcoming date with a two-headed woman. The singing zombie runs amok and kills a man in a computerized dog suit. Also, Flaming Carrot pops some bubble wrap.
