Hero: 9 To 5

Welcome to a world where being a super hero is just another job. A world where the rich

can afford comprehensive hero protection policies that ensure the best heroes will come to their aid in an emergency. The poor, however, have to make-do with protection from government sponsored agen-cies with limited resources whose staff are…shall we say…a little less heroic.

Jacob Reilly, aka Flame-O, is just one such hero, an everyday guy who just happens to be able to shoot fl ames from his hands. He didn’t want to be a super hero, he wanted to be a musician, but he wasn’t good enough to make a living at it. So he ended up getting a job at “Heroes For Zeros,” a government sponsored hero agency.

Hero: 9 to 5 is a fresh, funny take on the idea of real world super heroes.
