The Skruggs have begun their invasion of Earth and while mankind panics at this first encounter, Joey Jones and his toy turned mecha, Heroman, lay low while they work out a plan to repel the alien forces. Meanwhile, the Skruggs are not going to wait for the Earthlings to make their move. By taking advantage of some ill-advised meddling by a few Center City students, the Skrugg have begun developing a new weapon to pit against Heroman. But will this new force destroy the Skrugg from within instead?
Stan Lee is an American icon. Creator of many of the most famous comic characters of all time, Stan is almost as much of a character as the fictional figures he has penned in his 70-plus year career as a writer. Stan may best be known as the face of Marvel Comics. He was there from the time it was known as Atlas in the 40's and 50's, through the company's heydays in the 60's and 70's. He is credited as creator or co-creator of properties such as Spiderman, Silver Surfer, The Fantastic Four, The Avengers, DareDevil and The X-Men; many of which would become multi-media sensations. Throughout the years Stan has become more of an icon than a writer. He can be seen in many Marvel films. And he is a regular on the comic book circuit making appearances with his trademark "Excelsior!" catch-phrase.
Tamon Ohta is a veteran comic artist. He was the 2006 SquareEnix GI GanGan Award winner for comics. Heroman will be his first series published in English.
"Heroman is great material for kids. Younger, budding manga fans should have a grand time with Heroman." - Otaku USA
"Now I bet most readers are thinking… “Oh! this is a manga so the giant eyes are sooo going to annoy me”. And this may be true. But remember this is written by Stan Lee which is probably why this Manga feels like an American comic...I like this art a lot. It combines manga and the American comic style to create a fresh look and feel. I’ll definitely be picking up the next book!" - Stumptown Book Reviews
