SUPERUSELESS SUPERPOWER: 1987 Man
With just a touch, 1987 Man turns any pair of jeans to acid wash. The 90’s were especially rough on our hero, forcing him to quit his job
at the Gap. He now runs a Glamour Shots franchise along with fellow superheroes The Perminator and Shoulder Pad Girl.
Glad to see there's a cartoon, and not just the video.
ReplyDeleteWouldn't 1987 Man be a super villain, not a super hero? I mean... acid wash is a jean's worst enemy. It's like the leprosy of clothing.
ReplyDeleteBags makes a good point. Although I think he's a hero for the timeless classic that was the year of "1987," and not denim. Another SUPERUSELESS SUCCESS!
ReplyDeleteI love the ringpop. Nice touch. A slap bracelet would have been a good addition/replacement.
ReplyDeleteI still love the idea of this site...but the powers went from being ironically useless (lati-longidude and 99% opacity) to only useless because they're dumb.
ReplyDeleteI agree, they went from spoofs of super powers (as they resembled super powers except with complete ineffectiveness) to just dumb magical powers (which don't really resemble super powers at all). It seems like they forgot their concept.
