Guest The Masked Yodeler Report post Posted February 11, 2002 Does anyone else remember this guy? He was a generic hero who was former football player, and wore a football suit for his hero-ing. He had one of the worst origin stories ever too, he was in a photolab in a burning building, and the burning fumes gave him super strength/speed invulnerablity, etc. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest gthureson Report post Posted February 11, 2002 Never heard of him. The burning fumes of a photolab, huh? Woulda figured it'd give him something more like photographic memory or something. Whose book was he in? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest The Masked Yodeler Report post Posted February 11, 2002 He had his own series on Marvel. In fact, the first issue had a special appearence by none other than Spiderman. My guess is Marvel paid a pretty penny for the NFL license and wanted to make sure that they got a return on it. It was futile though as, as far as I know, NFL Superpro only ran 12 issues, plus a one-shot origin story. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Zack Malibu Report post Posted February 13, 2002 I remember this comic. I actually have the whole run of it, because when I was young I had a subscription to virtually every Marvel Comic. I also remember that he had a sidekick,his cameraman or something, and an enemy named Instant Replay. Now I'm gonna have to go digging for these. They're probably behind my stack of BILL AND TED'S EXCELLENT COMIC BOOK ADVENTURE. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest gthureson Report post Posted February 14, 2002 Part of Six-Packs old crimefighting team that he put back together to help Tommy in Hitman. My favorite was Bueno Excellente.

Guest areacode212 Report post Posted February 14, 2002 "Bueno.........." LOL. He was the greatest, and I loved the way Garth always forced you to use your imagination to figure out what exactly this guy's powers were. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
