John O'Brien

I've been a miner for a heart of gold.

About Me

I am John. Some people call me JOB, the initials for my name - John O'Brien.. Which is a pretty great name..
I'm an official superhero. My special powers include xray-vision, flight and the ability to shoot some firey shit out of my eyes.
Recently I took it upon myself to rid the world of people I don't like. The current count of people I don't like is now down to 3,999,999,991.
Once I saved a cat that was stuck up in a tree... and ate it.

I study brazilian jiu-jitsu and judo. Which means, I could kick Mike Tyson's ass! No really.. I could! .. Shut up!

I hate people and this is why.
