Illustrated by
Douglas Holgate.
A victim of bullies, Fern turns the tables when he becomes a mutant/superhero after falling into a vat of radioactive oil behind a burger joint. Lucky for Fern's town he did, because who else could save everyone from a giant, rampaging French fry? Supremely goofy, with action-filled comic-style illustrations that advance the bizarre premise.
