The Horseshoe King

The Horseshoe King

Can toss up to fifty ringers in ten seconds!

Thumber won't be catching any rides with 100 pounds of iron pinning his hand to the ground.

The Horseshoe King held the coveted title of Current Champ from Tuesday, September 09, 2008 to Tuesday, September 09, 2008, heartily vanquishing The Thumber to earn it. Unfortunately, brutal defeat came soon after, at the merciless hands of Decicorn.

This hero's magnaminous likeness was captured at the moment of glorious triumph by Kevin .

Audience

Quotes overheard while standing in the crowd that gathered to watch the carnage…

  1. I was pretty sure before that I preferred your pencil tones over the pc-colored versions, probably for the artistic feeling or something, but I think I am starting to change my mind...

    Really an awesome work on the details of the costume. But, it isn't like this always?

    Keep it up!

  2. Haha, Kevin are you trying to steer the Superest back to another Victorian-era series of heroes?

  4. Love the horseshoe details throughout the costume, especially the collar and the crown. Brilliant! His horseshoe caddy's pure look of panic makes me wonder if the previous caddy was executed for shoddy service.

  6. Superbly drawn hero Kevin.

    With all those horse shoes around (even in his crown) he must be the luckiest King alive.....

    ...till the next hero that is!

  7. Talking about luck and horseshoes... Kevin, do i see a childhood trauma with GTA San Andreas in this hero?

    ...

    Ok, sure I have it...
    *sigh*

  10. I don't get it... reading the additional comment really isn't helping much either. what does tossing ringers have to do with defeating a hitchhiker with a thumb blade?

  11. The Thumber's thumb sticks straight up like the stake in horseshoes. When the Horseshoe King throws enough horseshoes around his thumb, the Thumber is effectively neutralized because he can't lift his hand.

    Of course, I'm assuming you're familiar with the game of horseshoes - and if you're not, I could see how this wouldn't make sense.

Sea Miner

His cleverly-placed mines will sink any enemy ship! This may be the first accidental defeat. If only those mines were less sexually-attractive to Fuzzy...
