(4) 1-3 Melvin Beederman Superhero series. Illustrated by Rhode Montijo. Unlikely superhero Melvin Beederman returns in this third installment. A new evildoer, "Joe the Bad Guy," and his random scheme of making evil clones of the lead-singer of the title band, are all that differentiate this from the first two Beederman stories. Cheesy superhero conventions and jokes abound; sometimes they're even funny. Pencil-sketch illustrations add style and humor.
