Saul is about to graduate and has the world in the palm of his hand. His whole life has been mapped out and gone exactly as expected. It’s now time to get hired on the stock market with his perfect resume and spend the rest of his life deciding which Ferrari to buy.
But when the market crashes, Saul finds himself in need of any job that will have him and lands at Hero Hourly, where being a super hero is more like a mall cop with a fast food restaurant’s pay. Saul is given a super serum, a training manual, and is kicked out on the streets. But it turns out that stopping super apes and killer robots is the easiest part of his job. It’s the lazy coworkers, passive-aggressive bosses, and work politics that are really going to test him.
Hero Hourly might be just what Saul needs to become a little grounded, though.
Hero Hourly is an edgy, satirical graphic novel that asks what happens when superheroes punch a time clock instead of villains. When a spoiled finance grad is forced to take a job saving the world for lousy pay and worse management, he quickly learns that even superpowers can’t protect you from office politics, corporate mandates, or a bad performance review. Perfect for adult readers who enjoy dark humor, irreverent workplace comedies, and modern twists on superhero tropes.
