Ordinary

Ordinary

by RobWilliams (Author), D Õ Israeli (Author)

Synopsis

Imagine a world where everyone has superpowers. That is, except you. You are the same old turgid, miserable, lonely loser you've always been.

But when it comes to superpowers, apparently you can indeed have too much of a good thing. With everyone able to destroy tower blocks with a single punch, any minor fracas escalates into a city-leveling combat, and the world is now in ruins as terrorism and war threaten the very survival of the planet.

What's needed is a return to normality, to devolve back from Superhuman to just human - and there's only one man for the job: down-at-heal, divorced New York plumber, Michael Fisher.

Media Reviews
Williams and D'Israeli have concocted one of the most engaging and
imaginative comics I've read in years. - Rick Remender

Rob and D'Israeli craft an uncut diamond of a premise into a warm,
witty and wonderfully illustrated gem. This is lovely comics. - Al
Ewing

Rob Williams and D'Israeli are masters of the big picture and the
tiny details. - Douglas Wolk, author of 'Reading Comics: How Graphic Novels Work and
What They Mean'

As brutal as it is funny and as intelligent and thought provoking as
it is violent and gory, 'Ordinary' takes an age old idea and flips it
completely on its head - MASS MOVEMENT

One of the most critically acclaimed and interesting takes on the
superhero genre in a long time - FLICKERING MYTH

Recommended - SCI-FI ONLINE

Williams's script crackles with his trademark wit and imagination - BROKEN FRONTIER

Surreal and lovely, one of the most beautiful books of the year.
Warren Ellis

Imagine a place where everyone has their own unique superpower, and you can tell just from looking at them what that story? Now imagine it done with wit and wonder, and a talking bear, and a bloke who can magic beer out of thin air. Who else but Rob Williams could write it?
Garth Ennis

Williams and D'Israeli have a fantasti comconcept on their hands.
