Of course, the Green Phantasm would never dream of throwing a punch. In fact, his greatest super power is probably putting a smile on people's faces.


Sounds like the kind of hero Baton Rouge deserves, but not the one it needs right now.

Thanks for posting. I've met him at Boudreaux & Thibodaux's before. Figured he just had Asperger's or something. Funny thing is, that black dude that dresses like an old school pimp is usually there, too, appearing almost as the super villain.

You can read the first chapter on the Barnes and Noble website. LINK

I don't think his lack of promotion was the reason for slow sales.

I wouldn't want some fat dude in a skin tight costume hanging around my place of business either

Solid jab by The Advocate:

He's as tall as the Green Phantasm pictured on the book's cover, but doesn't quite have a superhero physique, his paunch hanging over his belt a little.

I saw this dude at Albertsons on Jones Creek the other day. He was getting in a woman's car. I was weirded out and wondering wtf I saw.

You would think knowing he is getting interviewed he would drink a Pepsi product not a competitors.

Strange cat.

Passed him about a month ago as he was walking down Bluebonnet - I pulled into the Swaggart driveway to stop and get a second look and make sure I saw what I thought I saw.

Yep. Crazy cat. Doesn't sound like he's hurting anyone, but I imagine he wouldn't fare too well if he walked through the wrong neighborhood dressed like that.

Curious what happened at the Londoner to get him banned.

PS - props to him for being dedicated enough to walk around in that suit in the Louisiana summertime. You know that's gotta be hot as heck. And he's not exactly in the best shape.

Oh my, that was rough. I wonder how much money he spent having that printed.
