The Story So Far…
He’s been a loser his whole life.
Impulsive.
Stupid.
Always getting his ass kicked.
He runs from every fight, cowers in every corner, finishes in the bathroom while ignoring people in need.
But this time, for some reason…he does NOT.
This time he charges headlong into battle…
With the Most Repugnant Monster on Earth!
