Meet some fair dinkum Australian characters as George Richards unfolds his tale of the Great Australian Super-hero who assists police solve their crimes in an unique, humorous way peculiar to the Australian psyche (if there is such a thing) There is pathos as the evil Officials attempt to evict a family of children from their departmental home. There is humour as the central characters set about their task of looking after the kids concerned. Good beats potential evil in true comic book style, but told in freestyle eclectic storylines rather than by traditional comic cartoon. Richards' use of that icon of teenage fashion, the 'hoody', is probably as far from the designers' original intentions as Melbourne is from Sydney. Even seasoned crooks should enjoy the ploys set by the Great Australian Super-hero as he goes about his business, albeit somewhat reluctantly, of ensuring that Good will defeat potential evil in good old Melbourne town, capital of Victoria, Australia.
