Believe it or not: The Greatest American Hero headed to comic books

Started by Mike Olbinski · 11 months ago

Sadly I wont be at Comic-Con until Thursday, because it would be a blast to check out what’s coming for The Greatest American Hero.
The entire cast of the original series, which ran from 1981-83, will be assembling this Thursday at Comic-Con to announce that the cult superhero show is going to be reborn as a comic book.

  • I actually bought the first issue of the first comic from Catastrophic Comics last month. It was interesting. I was a fan of TGAH and will definitely pick up at least the first issue if not the full run.

    William Katt's a bit of a nerd, so I think the books will actually be fun.
  • I loved this show as a kid... but the more I think about it, all I can really remember is the intro song (which was great) and the main guy's poofy permed hair (which was scary).

    Not sure if I care about a redo.
  • At the time, was the Greatest show on TV... bill (the FBI guy was just a total riot.... I could have done without ralphs stoopid class he taught, but I enjoyed him struggling with his powers and the exchange with the FBI guy...
  • I will choose not to believe it...
  • But ya have ta....!
  • I loved that show. It made me laugh so much every time he would crash. And Connie was so great in that show , but she was great in everything I saw her in. She is an Italian HERO
  • The early 80s was a great time for sci-fi shows. TGAH, Hulk, Martian Chronicles, The Phoenix (remember that one?), the original Battlestar Galactica, etc...

    Sadly, I think William Katt started doing soft porn in the 90s though. But, fast-forward to the new century and all of that nonsense is behind us and once again, the golden age dawns on sci-fi TV. yea!
