HOTW- Electrode


 From WIki- Electrode (David Shenk) — The leader of the group, a scientist whose love of comics motivated him to give himself super-powers. Can generate electricity—up to and including lightning bolts—and can fly. He often pressures the team into adopting superhero conventions such as wearing costumes and patrolling the city, but underneath such superficial pretensions, he is genuinely concerned with saving lives. Back to me:

This was the first independent comic book that I ever started reading, at issue #15 or #16.  I mean, it had a dragon as part of the team!  I was in!  Electrode was your most basic superhero there, and was a big comic book nerd.  He had a girlfriend, and I think they got married at some point.  I would have been his friend.  I miss this book, and was hopeful it would return at some point.  Alas, it has not.
