DriveThruComics: Cancertown: An Inconvenient Tooth, Hero 9 to 5 & More

Defects

Raised in the first ‘school’ of its kind, after the birth of so many super powered children, the U.S. Government vowed to turn these troubled children into well enabled members that would give to a productive society.

They were successful except for a group of ‘Defects’.

Cancertown: An Inconvenient Tooth #1

Vince Morley is a man with big problems and a brain tumour like a baby’s fist; living with one foot in a monstrous alternate world he calls Cancertown.

When the lost and dispossessed of London start tripping over the same cracks in reality he spends his life avoiding, Morley realises he must confront the residents of Cancertown – and risk finding his place among them.

Lei Li “The rage of the tiger” #01

Lei Li lost his right-arm in a sword duel with the master of a martial arts school, long ago. Now, he is able to defend himself well with just his left arm, and kung fu techniques. That he proves with just the help of his friend Chung-Chieng, when he crosses his path with a beautiful girl in need, Pao Chiao. Even against impossible odds, he will prove a great warrior.

Walter Koenig’s Raver

Don’t yell at Norman Walters. He doesn’t deal well with conflict.

A psychotic breakdown follows during which his mind invents bizarre nightmare worlds with real villains and real victims. Evil abounds and requires vanquishing. Toward that end, Norman becomes Raver, a superhero with a caveat: his powers change from one twisted reality to another to closely mirror but never exceed those of his enemies.

If Raver should fail in these grotesque new worlds, Norman Walters wouldn’t get to return to the old warm and fuzzy one.

This is a re-release of a 3-issue series, originally published in the 1990s. Includes a new adventure!
