comment |
Apama - The Undiscovered Animal is an independent superhero comic created by Ted Sikora, Milo Miller, and Benito Gallego. It is vaguely connected to Sikora and Miller's independent film Hero Tomorrow.Eons ago, the mighty apama defeated the lion in order to become the king of the beasts. Disgusted that no other creature could match his power, the apama disappeared, vowing to rule the other animals in obscurity.In the present day, perpetually luckless ice-cream truck driver Ilyia Zjarsky stumbles upon a mysterious cave in the woods outside of Cleveland, where he finds a weird suit and a diagram portraying a pose that could supposedly unlock the secret powers of the apama. Despite not knowing what an apama is, Ilyia dedicates himself to replicating the pose, and is rewarded with superhuman powers, which he uses to defend Cleveland from a host of bizarre villains. |

Comic-Book Fantasy Casting: Many of the characters in the series are modeled after actors from Hero Tomorrow. Ilyia is Perren Hedderson, Vica is Joceyln Wrzosek, Jesse is Bryan Jalovec, and Elwin Clements, the CEO of United Federal Oil, is Pat Milo. The various characters associated with the "Nothing Like Vaudeville" arc are modeled after actors from the Near West Theatre. |

Alcohol-Induced Idiocy |
| Apama - The Undiscovered Animal (Comic Book) / int_16ddefda |
comment |
Alcohol-Induced Idiocy: Jesse Schraeder's transformation into the Lawn Mower Man involves getting very, very drunk and inexplicably driving his riding mower onto a skylight. Naturally, the glass breaks under the weight of the mower and he plunges into a lab below. In "Ten Cent Beer Night", United Federal Oil tries to win back some public goodwill by sponsoring the beer for a baseball game, allowing the stadium to sell beer for ten cents a bottle, with no limits on how much beer one person can buy. As one might expect, a whole lot of drunken, stupid behavior ensues. |

Soft Water: Tragically subverted when Apama's battle with Ruster on the Superior Bridge results in some poor woman's car falling into the river below. While Apama's superhuman powers allow him to dive in after her without serious injury, the woman, Veronica Yvette Alvarez, is already dead by the time he fishes her out of the river, having sustained a fatal injury when the car hit the water. |

comment |
Knight of Cerebus: Apama's battle with Lawn Mower Man is mostly comedic, but the battle with the Million-Year Hunger is serious business. Not only does it kill a lot of civilians, but it manages to render one of Ilyia's hands intangible and screws up his powers for a while. And then Regina shows up, kicks Apama's ass, and carves a nasty line in Ilyia's chest. |
