Absolutely amazing! I've read/seen several plays that use superhero/comic tropes and motifs, and this is surely top of its genre! Femia deftly utilizes the conventions of the comic world to explore what happens when your real-life mentors' character flaws just might outweigh their positive qualities, mental health, hunger, compulsions and addictions, and living through and overcoming family trauma. Double-casting is done with deft skill, and the dialogue--not a word of it wasted--is absolutely propulsive and dynamic. The ending is unexpected and nuanced, much like the entire play. How I'd love to see this wonderful piece onstage! ”
