Summary:
"In the small run-down town of Littleville, Co., Nelson Jent is out of shape, out of work and out of hope. But, after a fateful alleyway scuffle, he stumbles upon a mysterious payphone. Calling for help, Nelson dials 4-3-7-6: H-E-R-O. With the power of the H-Dial, an ordinary man is transformed into a range of seemingly random, extraordinary superheroes, from the mischievous Boy Chimney to the one-man army of The Iron Snail! Confused and over his head, Nelson tries to forge forward and become the hero he never wanted to be. But will he be able to harness the power of the H-Dial and protect it from falling into the hands of evil? Or will this newfound power plunge our hero into madness?" --p.[4] of cover.
