The world of superheroes has changed. In the past, great names such as Superman, Batman, Spiderman, The Tick or even Poneyman waged a merciless war against organised crime. Earthlings could sleep peacefully.
All these heroes from the glorious past are now retired. They sit comfortably ensconced in their wheelchairs, quietly waiting to breathe their last. They watch the new generation between a nap and a game of Scrabble.
Wonderwoman, aged 68, a resident of the Daffodil Nursing Home, remembers : « In my day, we fought crime and we saved poor people. Unfortunately, things have changed. »
It’s true, everything is going to hell. Crime is back and it prospers and terrorises poor people. Humanchico is the symbol of the new generation, he is the new saviour. However, his aims are less noble than one would expect from a more traditional superhero. Never the less, Humanchico fights with the same gusto as his forefathers, except his worse enemies are now French-fried potatoes.
