Owning a comic shop for 15 years and being a 3 decade long collector…I’ve seen some shitty comics in my day. Usually it comes in the form of a low budget Indy publisher with horrific art, cliche stories, and a terrible premise. Well…I have a new hunk of shit to share you all today. This one’s comes straight from a collection we just purchased, and after snapping photos for this piece, went immediately into my bargain boxes at the shop. I look forward to someone pulling this turd in the near future.
I’m talking about the world’s shittiest superhero, Chasm!!! The Guardian of the Grand Canyon. This comic was put out in the fall of 1995 by Canyon Comics which specialized in several shitty comics such as the Eco Squad, which centered around other equally shitty superheroes protecting national parks.
In this breathtaking issue, Chasm saves some dipshit from falling off a cliff to his death. Cool. Then with the help of his stupid bird Phantom, locates, tracks down, and brings to Justice, one of his arch enemies…the super dangerous Litterbug!!! It seems Litterbug used his powers of mind control on some unsuspecting park goers and had them chuck their trash on the ground. Ummmm…cool…
I don’t want to ruin the other “exciting” adventures that happen in this action packed issue, so I’ll just shut up now and let you read this pile of wet shit for yourself. Just know that next time you decide to go camping at the park, or visit that National Monument…there’s a super shitty superhero like Chasm…waiting behind a dirty boulder or something…ready to spring into action to help you pop up your tent…or show you how to bury turds properly. I dunno….
If you took the time to read this, I apologize sincerely.
